How about a "the making of MCX" DVD?

[DaveR]

I for one would pay good money to see interviews with the makers, insider bits, early screen shots, development stuff. That would be pretty cool. No need to put in any industry secrets or give anything away. Maybe at the same time include a history of MC in general.

 

On one level sort of a silly idea, but I'd love to see it.

Maybe not so silly. Perhaps a great marketing tool as long as no trade secrets out. I'd go back to running machine full time before I'd run any other cam software. I was even faced with that decision and lucked out with current job.

Just call Dicvoery channel and pitch it to them should be out right after American hotrod ot American chopper.

You know, that's probably not a bad idea. Discovery Channel would probably be just the people to pimp it to.

 

Ben Mund..... ARE YOU LISTENING

 

James teh calling out CNC SOftware!

[Mike Mattera - TFM]

Since everyone on Discovery uses Mastercam anyway (West Coast Choppers, Body Coddington, etc...) It might not be a bad idea.

Are there any disfunctional software engineers? If not might have to invent one or two.

[Guest CNC Apps Guy 1]

Most software Engineers are Dysfunctional. Ain't that right Pete???

I think the first 2 seasons will need to be converted from "Beta" format.

[Ken Erman from CNC Software Inc.]

Pete always says that the making of software is a lot like the making of laws and sausages. You don't want to know how it's done... It could give you gas.

ROFL @ Ken !!!!

Boyd fired his Mastercam guy on Friday night's episode. Mike was moonlighting for a hated rival

and Boyd fired him on the spot. He had the IT guy

lock down Mike's computers and pull the hard drive.

I think Boyd may have a hard time replacing Mike.

I'll bet his pay scale is on the low side

was mike the one that used to come en here or was it someone else
