serves you right
If going servos then I would say an external controller would be best simply due to the PP's limited kernel. Which one is personal choice. The Smoothstepper works well but for me I like my machines to have differential step/dir signals and 24v I/O. That meant I needed to make interface boards up but now the CSMIO controllers are on the scene they suit me much better and make things simpler.
