Thank you for your approval, I'm not interested in spamming. THank you
also for files and images. You should join the "sister" group, is
still alive. Anyway, I will read this group, gathering all useful
informations.
1. Reagrding to Internet (about groups, you already know), I don't
know, we easy find tracks of TurboCNC on internet, are many sites
referring it. Is free and if you buy it, you can get also the sources
and this is another point of attraction. I accidentaly discovered
CNCPro and I'm glad now is public domain with the sources. You can
find it but first you must know what you are searching for ;) . I
think is not largely used, or users don't have a site to speak about
it. LinuxCNC with his emc2 on a Linux Ubuntu Hardy LiveCD is a great
offer. Is a good solution for modern computers.
2. - you know the answer -
3. No, not yet. Not yet a CNC, but I'm gathering parts. Of course, I'm
curious about code. I have an old computer in construction, good also
for Microchip programming...
