Mac Software? Most Popular are Non-Mac?

Thanks Tom! Appreciate the heads up! I don’t mind eventually paying to play when I find one that does everything and worth learning. Hoping I can do simple stuff in Illustrator to at least get up and running. Would I even be close to guessing that simple cutouts can be done in AI but the 3D softwares are more for actual carving (as in depth variations when sculpting?) can I send a simple DXF (like a cutout of a name) and have the controller set the depth and just follow the path?

Thanks again
