If you were starting now, USB interface! Maybe Bluetooth or WiFi but
they're mostly more trouble than needed. I have USB running one mill
with Mach3 and I have a USBCNC board for the other mill.
Toss the idea of flipping bits on a parallel port into the same
dumpster that all the computers with parallel ports are in.??? I know,
you can buy a used old machine on eBay.??? Do you REALLY want to tell
your customers that your snazzy CNC device won't work with a single
modern computer?

I have forgotten much,
if not almost all, of my hardware design and software
programming. If I were to ever attempt to CNC any machine I
would have to bring myself back up to date on this, which
would mean starting all over again.
