A question often asked by new CNC router users who are MAC computer users is, can you use a Mac computer, instead of a PC computer, to do your CNC design work and run your CNC router or laser machine? this video tutorial explains what you can do to use a Mac computer to do your design work.
You will learn about PC emulator software, the pros and cons of using it, and why it is best to have dedicated PC computers for your CNC machine design work.
Emulators (Parallels, Winebottler, Boot Camp) are PC emulators that you can install on your Mac to do your CNC project design work and run a CNC machine. The drawbacks are you lose hard drive space, and some emulators have issues. It is not recommended to use free emulators.
I strongly recommend using PC for both design and CNC operation because most software and machines are built with them in mind. Below are my recommendations for PC computers.
