Hector,
Where in the USA are you?
By the way, PC based controls have far more flexibility than proprietary controls and are less than half the cost of say Fanuc for example. Old used controls are not worth repairing or in my opinion upgrading. Money is better spent on retrofitting the entire control system instead. Then you get a service organization to work on your machine when you need help. Very important...
You can buy a used CNC machine, retrofit the control and get better performance than buying a new machine, if you choose the right control retrofit...
