From the Pathpilot FAQ:

"Can I get PathPilot for my non-Tormach machine?
PathPilot upgrade kits are intended for Tormach Machine Controllers only. At this time we are not offering PathPilot for use with third party machines, converted mills, or homemade CNC machines. "
The confusion may be over the use of a Tormach controller. Early on, Tormach wanted to sell PP only if bundled with the controller hardware. Tormach then revised that to say that while they'd sell PP to a Tormach owner, if the owner wanted to use his own controller hardware Tormach would not provide controller hardware support. I had that specific conversation when I moved from Mach3 to PP a couple years ago (roughly a year post PP launch).
