I have just recently moved up to this version, and did the first real work
with the TkEmc UI last weekend.  I found some bugs which were rather
disturbing, so I may go back to the xemc UI for a while.  So, we are using the
same version.  I am running servo motors on mine, but that shouldn't make any
difference at the UI level.

I've been using it for about 18 months, now, and I can't begin to imagine
some of the jobs I did without EMC!
