Cheap 4 Axis USB CNC machine

 

I have some old Windows computers I can get my hands on to run the mill, but didn't want to shell out $638 and have it be a waste.  I'd like to start with this machine, learn the ins and outs, and sell some pieces to get a better machine.  Does anyone have some advice for me?

 

 

It will work on a win xp, 7, 8, 8.1 or 10 computer it uses Mach3, will it be a good machine that's 50/50 if you know your way around electronics and mechanical objects you may be fine but if you don't it's a risk you may have to spend the same amount again to make it work, in other words it's a big risk and it's upto you. most people would just say no don't do it
