[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 49803, member: 176912"] In fact it's both. At the procesing end, the PC hardware runs the application software and plugins which address the hardware drivers, which in turn enables the application to access the i/o device, and pass the 'data' to the motor/switch/whatever. This then interprets that signal and translates it back into a hardware response (switching/driving/whatever). The hardware has to be capable of interpreting the software, and vice versa. The hardware in this case is often capable (tho not always) but does not come with fully functional software. This has often been supplemented with additional software to achieve full function. Sorry for talkin' like a spanner, but you did ask! [/QUOTE]
