Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: EMC and Taig w/ MicroProto

Most users Windows machines are so crufted up with spyware, viruses,
trojans, 3 different ant-spyware/virus/trojan programs that are at each
others throats, that you have no chance of running a cnc on them. A cnc
machine needs a known clean install to provide good service. Also, think
about safety. Everyone knows how crazy a machine can get when it is
infected with something, just throw in a endmill turning at 2K and watch
the fun begin.
