Enter as much information about your CNC hardware and software as you can - it makes it easier for everyone to know what you're talking about then.

If it's DOS then it should work somehow. Even if you have to use dosbox or create a virtual dos installation (VMWare)

If it's the Apple or BBC versions, then 99.9% sure it won't (unless there are some very good emulators around??)
