I'm ordering a new PRO4848. CNCRP is not selling Mach4 yet so they don't support it, and so I'd be on my own to set it up, but from what I've read and seen it sounds like a better option than Mach3. I understand woodworking and CAD but know nothing of the control software and electronics setup. I'll be getting the PNP Nema 34 electronics.

Would setting up a new machine with Mach4 be difficult? Is there an easier solution with Acorn or similar? I don't mind spending a little more on the software if it's easier to get going. What are most new owners buying? Thanks for the help!
