I do give credit where it's due. I've often praised EMC/LinuxCNC, and did so recently in the Mach forum regarding its threading and spindle behaviour but being selective without giving the whole picture is very misleading. I use LinuxCNC for anything where threading is involved, for everything else I use a 5 year old version of Mach as it behaves much more Fanuc like with CV, feed hold etc. The current Mach offerings are buggy as hell and unreliable. >On the other hand, I do appreciate Your critics and the weak points of >the LinuxCNC You have pointed out, like the jog-during-feedhold.

For me it helps to understand, where LinuxCNC stands, >when compared with other CNC controllers (and I do have to provide >these comparisons with argumentation to my customers, before I get a >contract with a new customer). I do a lot of support, development and OEM testing - my nature to call a spade, a spade - it's what I get paid to do. I don't get upset by criticism, but sometimes others do and it's got me sacked a few times - but I've always been able to wear my "told you so" t-shirt proudly a ways down the line :) I'll try and keep my comments to myself and leave you guys to it.
