"bot" whose name cannot be spoken!
I'm in Boston, so I visited the new Makerbot store for the heck of it. It was actually interesting. The printers are nice(although overpriced IMO) What was more fascinating for me was listening to peoples reactions and questions. I think there is still quite a bit of education to be done before "consumers" understand what we're doing. Interestingly the question I eavesdropped the most-"How long did this take to print?"

Eagle...I promise I didn't stay long enough to be contaminated

Okay, my cry is over and I feel better now. I hope you shook the dust off your shoes when you walked out. I don't consider them enemies because thatBatteau62 wrote:Eagle...I promise I didn't stay long enough to be contaminatedJust needed to take a peek behind enemy lines
