How many LinuxCNC/EMC users do we have?

[D.C.]

I plan to use linuxcnc/EMC. EMC was designed as industrial class machine control software, just like apache is an industrial class webserver, if you have already gotten over the screaming hysterics of IT'S NOT WINDOWS, I'M SCARED!!! Why not use great free software that you are free to hack the crap out of if you want to?

PS, just incase a windows VS *nix debate does start, please take a look here and choose operating system family from the category option.

There is a reason why windows based supercomputers are a rounding error... ;)

Inventor of the kernel...Mmmmmm thats right UNIX. Don't get me started here for gods sake.


I will now get off my soap box. Every system has it's place, it's just a case of how much you can spend on marketing that makes it great in the eyes of the beholder. Like the bible there once was a computer, and like the deciples a rouge one went in another direction ripping off his friends :-)
