it says "Buon Giorno" :)
thank you! if you noticed I have already made several videos with your Mach4 Lathe!
If I can afford to give advice, if the license cost a lot less, the spread of Mach4 Hobby would be much bigger!
It is an excellent program, but its cost is holding back its diffusion.

What should it cost ? if your a hobby person you can have 10 copies at home. Seems like a good deal... But I really would like to know what you think the correct price point is.

Thank you for your work!

to repay the bad impression, I just have to spread the news on the Italian forum that I attend!
because like me many people are not aware of this new possibility!

Would it help if I had an Italian  translation? We have the tools to do a localization. We try to make the money to pay the bills off industry and give a great deal to the people at home.  We like to say if you are making money pay us for each copy, if your at home having fun have fun it is a license for the home shop. (That is why they are not transferable) .

yes, yes I got it.
the license is personal for each individual user.
here I stop, it is a bigger speech than me.
I am a mechanic, not a marketing expert.
I continue to make Mach4 known also in Italy, it is the best I can do!
