I use an old 333mhz pc with 196mb running Win2000 and Mach2 on my Prazi
mill. It runs fast enough for than machine. I Use a 750mhz on my CNC
router, and that is limited to about 65 in/min rapids, but it has servos
and ratios that take 32,000 pulses per inch. It does run reliabily with
Mach set for the 35K pulse rate.

I sure wish Mach ran under Linux, and that I had a good CAD and CAM
suite, Id love to not have any microsoft product in the house. In
particular, note the new Microsoft policy to take effect in the next few
months that will require proof of orign to get service updates. See
