General Mach Discussion / We need Linux port
« on: November 15, 2006, 02:52:21 PM »
Honestly, converting a PC to a controller for $159 just isnt true. WIndows costs a minumum of $100.
A PC being a Personal Computer can run any OS, it doesnt inply that it is a Windows system.
CAD/CAM is a techy thing. I am sure theres plenty of ppl out there who wish MACH ran under linux. IM no Linux guru so i can't do it myself, all i can do is beg and plead that someone help make this software run under a sane and free OS, which windows is not
The dawn of Vista is upon us, and im scared. The headache being created by MIcrosoft for developers looms upon you! BE AFRAID!
LOL, ok seriously. A machine controller should be able to run on a system like linux/unix. WINDOWS is CLUNKY! not designed for direct control of peripherals. I would bet half of all your coding problems deal with tricking windows out of doing what it wants to.
PLZ PLZ PLZ WE NEED A LINUX PORT!!!
Thank You
P.S. I have been using Mach softawre for 3 years now and love it.
