Looking for Feedback on what your general experiences are with any and all Break out Boards you have used. Support, Documentation, Desired Features, Ease of Use? Or any other suggestions that you feel would make it easier to implement. Al.

| Love boards that run off something other than parallel ports, which are obsolete. Love the idea of boards that give the equivalent of 2 parallel ports worth of I/O. Hate that all the non-parallel port ones I have tried so far (GRex/G100 and SmoothStepper) are poorly supported and missing features I think of as critical such as lathe threading or backlash comp. First one to implement all Mach 3 features, be very reliable, reasonably priced, and well supported will take the market by storm. |

| The board that I used is a one off prototype, but based on what I have read on the Zone the biggest complaint is not features, but documentation! I don't care how good a product is, if you can;t figure out how to use it, it is worthless! How many times have we all seen pleas for help on how to hook up a board to ZYZ software?
