Ralph,

That's good news!
I knew it was by no means the latest or greatest.

So if I used LinuxCNC on the PC hard drive, a CAD/CAM program sending G 
code to it,
and the Indexer LPT would be dumped. (I'm just guessing here)

What kind of connections would be used to go from the PC to the "Eternal 
Hardware"?
(Assuming LPT boards aren't used).
