A few days ago I downloaded Mach3 and all the PDF manuals to start familiarizing with it. The installer installed 4 shortcut icons in my desktop: Mach3Loader, Mach3Plasma, Mach3Mill & Mach3Turn.

At first glance, they all look alike to me except the Mach3Turn. Is there any major difference between them? I plan to use it for a router machine which I’m in the process to build.

The Mach3 is installed on my Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop for now (no parallel printer port). My laptop is more convenient to study the software and learn all the menus / commands etc. When I’m ready, I will install it on another older Dell laptop I have which it has a parallel port and this will be my control computer.

Last night I decided and bought from cnc4PV.com the licence for the Mach3. I did not receive it yet but I was told that I should in a couple of hours. Is there a problem to install the licence on my 6400 laptop and latter transfer it to my control laptop?
