I have almost stopped evangelizing linuxcnc... (almost) People are going to use what they are going to use. I just try to put out how cool and flexible linuxcnc is..

Plus you have the history of the centroid front end (it is exactly the same as their expensive controls) You certainly pay a premium and every option is an extra $$$ (and it is a pretty rigid platform) sam On Tue, Sep 6, 2022 at 7:53 PM Bari <bari00...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 9/6/22 19:06, John Dammeyer wrote: > > > If I was to offer an reason to go LinuxCNC to someone who is attracted > to an Acorn system what would I say.
