I've done some milling and such, but it was a LONG time ago in high 
school and there was no such thing as computer integration with any of 
the equipment then.  I do get to play with a CNC router at work from 
time to time, so I can't imagine that it would be all that different, 
other than being a bit slower and more precise.  I could maybe find a 
few hours at some point to put some time in.
