What concerns me most is the computing part mainly based
on silly old PC architecture from the 80's. Using PCs for
that purpose made sense in the early 1990s to about 2010
but now it's time to move on IMO. I don't see much usable
discussions on this mailing list, sorry guys.
I believe LinuxCNC will run on several ARM processors, such
as Rasberry Pi and Beagle Bone.
Also, the Machinekit fork of LinuxCNC definitely runs on the
Beagle Bone.
Also, Centroid is selling the Acorn CNC control, which
appears suspiciously to be a LinuxCNC clone running under
cover with another GUI.
