I’ve been looking at options to replace my aging Mach3 based controller using USB smooth stepper. Found two interesting Ethernet based systems Acorn and the UC300 series
Fact is that all my programs are on a non Ethernet laptop. When I ask what are solutions for a non Ethernet pc I get buy an old pc with an Ethernet port.

Isn’t that the same answer we got when PCs we’re loosing parallel ports?

Point is that I think these window/pc driven controllers have seen there peak. Sure there are a bunch of folks who just bought a bunch of pc based stuff that will stand behind what they have but this stand alone computer in the controller is coming

If you want evidence then look no further then controllers being sold for lasers.
