> by the way, if a friend of mine want to start cnc milling, what I suggest himt to buy, Mach3, M4 or UCCNC(w/the drive controller). ..its seems M4 still has some imperfections in plugin portion &.., will it be solved in very near future? As i haven't use it, it claims that its core structure/design is completely different from Mach3, is it really better? The first two softwares are universal type, the last one seems only applicable to its controller...
