Re: Centroid CNC Software Licensing Upgrade Announcement




So much detail provided it's not easy to see the wood for the trees!


If you want to upgrade to the latest version of CNC12 send us $79 so we can pay the programming team and keep the lights on. If you don't want to upgrade you still get bug fixes for free.
