Hi Ross/all:
Unfortunately SurfCAM is no longer available free. In the CAD/CAM group there was quite a deal of griping over what many percieved to be Surfware's "bait and switch" policy. Basically one had to continually renew the software and then a year later they suddenly decided to discontinue the program.... Of course they offered an 'upgrade' path. Essentially it was a marketing teaser in my opinion. I'm a little on the fence about it. Ethically I'm not too thrilled with their approach, but it certainly is legal. I guess it is up to each person to evaluate themselves.
