I understand that everyone wants things to be easy to use. But if a single click install is the requirement for a CNC application, the user will be woefully disappointing when the CNC cards and components don't just "plug and play". Which is more than a little ironic since there is almost nothing in the machine tool world that just happens with a single click.
