  2. GPL CAD/CAM on Using Open Source and CNC? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have been doing CNC work for a few years now, mostly freelance. Drawing tool paths for business signs, reproducing parts for farm equipment, some wood craft items and writing software to do the simple stuff; generating and post processing g-code and talking to controllers.
    You might want to check out QCad, it is GPL'd CAD/CAM software with g-code support and it only costs a few hundred dollars.

  3. Re:Phone companies did this long ago on Typosquatting · · Score: 1

    The phone companies are still doing this. When we ordered phone service we got signed up for long distance service through a company named "The Phone Company"
    I think all of this has gone too far, domain names should be first come first served. Not quick enough to get the domain you wanted, too bad, think of a new one or attempt to buy it off the person who did register it for whatever they want to charge you for it.
