How far away from the pc box can the mouse, keyboard, printer and monitor be situated and still function properly?
I am converting a mill to cnc and the options are the above or to have the box ( ubuntu) next to the mill and network up to the up to the main pc (xp) for file sharing, cheers

But I don't know how long

Might be better to do remote desktop control or something on it...
