Well, the power supply on my last computer with a LPT port blew. Now I have to decide whether to fix it, or just go with something like the UC 100 usb/parallel port converter. I have been using a 64 bit Win 7 machine setup next to my old XP machine to do my MeshCam and CAD stuff, and the XP machine just ran Mach 3. I would like to just have the one machine, but not enough to spend a gazillion on a new usb breakout board.
Anyone have experience witht the UC 100? I have looked at the SainSmart and what not, and that seems a risky deal.
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks
Dan
