The programmer has already done work with Mach, I believe, granted on a smaller basis but done it nonetheless.
Now your two tier thing, well that is happening, its already out but at this point its more or less the same programme, it does have a faster update, 50Hz rather than the 10 of Mach and has improved toolpath view. This version I think will be the same as Mach Rev4 when Rev4 comes out but as time passes they will diverge. Thats my understanding anyway.
 Not sure if the parallel port will be catered for in the Industrial version, its not at the moment but in the future it may be in the shape of a plugin, I use the Industrial version on the Bridgeport as it uses the Scorpion controller card.

Hood,

Is this version with the faster update rate available somewhere? Has it ever been released to the public? Somehow, I believe I had it downloaded somewhere, but can't find. But I think at that time they mentioned 20Hz. Is it now 50Hz?

Dan it comes with Hardware, ie the Industry Controls hardware (MCB1, Scorpion Or Industry Controls SS)

Hey there
Any news from the V4-front-line?
