Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] replication, or big machines from small ones was Re: Soliciting Feedback:OS

Thanks again, Ron

Graham,

Yes, I agree with Mariss. My reply was aimed at Ron's blanket
statements about what machines can and cannot do. Not so much about
Dennis's original "OS" idea, which is partly why I changed the subject
line...
