I've read all I can find here but nothing to really answer my question so...
I have Mach3 installed on an XP machine here at work. Our IT guy doesn't like (to be put mildly) XP.
I have to buy a license to get full functionality so I thought it'd be a good time to upgrade the machine.
After reading up on the subject here I see issues with Win7 in general as used with Mach3. Our new
machine would likely be a 64 bit Win8 machine, which if I read correctly requires an external motion controller.
The intended use for the machine is PCB etching. Am I going to be better suited in staying with XP
or upgrading?
Or as an alternative, recommend a different controller software?
Any/all opinions are welcome!
