I finally got down to the wire , and have made the decision to buy a mill NOW . What I'm wondering , how much computing capacity is needed when I (eventually) do the CNC conversion ? I currently have a HP that runs a 1.1 Ghz Pentium CPU , has 512 mb RAM (maxed out for this motherboard) , and 70 Gb storage . I currently have XP Home loaded on this machine , but can go to Linux (Ubuntu , likely) or any current Windows OS .
