Re: Mach3

Mach3 has unbelievable stuff now. Check the Yahoo
group. It now has "brains".

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mach1mach2cnc/

On great advantage is not having to boot into DOS
to run a file. You can be working on a design, minimize
you design program and test run in Mach3. Back & forth
in seconds instead of minutes.

I've even run it while connected to the net....not as
a matter of doing actual work, but it didn't miss
a beat for that test.
