I currently have Alibre Cad and really like it.

I am looking for a good Cam package.....it seems like alibre cam is the only one that integrates directly into alibre cad.

If someone is on a...

Now that the ATC is here.....has anyone heard any rumors as to what is coming out next? A new mill? Servo motors perhaps? How about a standalone lathe?

Who here uses Alibre Cam? How do you like it? I am debating between that and Sprutcam. I have Alibre Cad and really like it.
