you might look at Vector, they have a free down load to try @ http://www.imsrv.com or call 248-486-3600.The program is a CAD/CAM and supports both lathe and mill.They have a neat thread program that I bought and will instantly produce G code.They are nice people to work with,the tutorials can get you up & running pretty quick.

MecSoft has a new CAM program for lathes that's in your price range (with discounts), VisualTurn. You can download a free 30 day trial.

ProE is nice for turning, for simple task including threading the mach3 wizards looks promising
