    Another Centroid product I am very happy with. I like being able to write programs without being at the machine. All of my computers have an Offline version of Intercon. The only reason for 4 stars is that I have not figured out how to Engrave with Intercon, and cannot find out how to do it in the manuals. Really Intercon Online and Offline is a 4.8 out of 5
