Replacement for 3D Systems Actua

I'd like to know what people think about the new ThermoJet Solid Object
Printer by 3D Systems. Is anyone planning on implementing large numbers
of these machines? Is this the beginning of taking RP out of the labs
and giving it to the users much like printers and plotters, or is this
machine still to complicated and fragile to release into the general
engineering community for every day use.

It appears that 3D has improved the speed, reliability and part
durability while reducing the cost significantly.

Thanks,
Chris Aiken
