Centroid Acorn Controller - Has anyone tried one?

[Ger21]

I've heard very good things about the acorn, and if you can live with the limited I/O, and 4 axis, it may be the best hobby level control there is. Especially for lathe users.
It just doesn't have enough customization features for my needs.

I will say the software does look good, and it could be the best software in the world, but if you can't get enough inputs and outputs, it's useless.

Always ways around this stuff and £140 buys you PLC with 32 I/O for the simple in/out/up/down/spin etc stuff.

Just like many other boards which come with restricted I/O then it starts costing you for more with expansion cards so not much difference really.
Main and BIG Difference is the software is Rock Solid and is supported by people who know what there doing.
