Wow,

Talk about a slap in the face to all of the FDM service bureaus! There's
not much worse than having to compete with someone who also happens to be
your equipment provider.

Hard to imagine Service Bureau's getting excited about this announcement!
Guess Stratasys's target market for machines are OEM's.

Hi Folks:

Just got a news release from Stratasys that should be of general interest.
Here's a small excerpt:

In a message dated 05-10-18 12:36:16 EDT, Joe Hiemenz writes:

 Automated Service Can Handle High Volume of Parts Made from
Production-Grade Plastics
 
 Minneapolis , Oct. 17, 2005 - Stratasys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSYS) today
announced the launch of RedEye RPM(tm), the world's largest rapid prototype
and part building service. Stratasys CEO, Scott Crump, will also introduce
the initiative at 4 p.m. today while presiding over the NASDAQ market
closing ceremony in New York City.
 
 RedEyeRPM.com is an online extension of Stratasys' existing BuildFDM
service, which builds prototypes and parts using the FDM process for
customers in North America. RedEye augments this existing service by
allowing automated, instant quoting and ordering around the clock, seven
days a week.
