Hi Jon, I'm using an GeForce 2 Nvidia card and it smears a bit on some windows. May have to try something else. Will check for a menu. After the comments (JMK) this afternoon about problems with the Mazak at Galesburg I tried running a program on my machine while doing other things. The program was a pretty generic mill a bunch of identical blocks, first roughing at 4.5 ipm and the finishing at more like 12 ipm. Meanwhile I fired up the web browser since that makes the numbers on my latency test increase about as fast and anything I can do. Didn't even get a bump; even on the rapids between blocks. So while my latency numbers are really horrible, i.e. in the 96K range, I can't demonstrate any degradation in the performance of the mill.
