I read those threads this morning. There isn't much real info being shared over there these days, the majority is i-dot troubleshooting. I have had some hot dtg opinions for some time, especially those epson based printers, I just thought I would see what others had to say about them.
Last years ISS show in Ft. Worth, I was drug over to the idot at the GSG booth and watched it do it's thing while listening to a terrible sales pitch from a new guy that didn't know what he was talking about, but I was polite anyway and went through the whole thing. I believe Donnie was standing around there as well about the time I was there, and I really didn't have the heart to tell the guys that there was no way in hell one of them would be in our shop. I've been sitting by watching the m&r forums to see what kind of machine they were, and a small part of me smiles when I read those because I had a really good feeling that they were not going to be what they were trying to sell me on. I was told some pretty heavy things about the reliability and lack of maintenance about the machine at that time that I knew couldn't be true, but the sales guy was very uneducated on the matter so I really shouldn't hold that against m&r, but I do anyway. They put the hard sell on me for months, and now that sales guy doesn't even work for them anymore and I don't have a high maintenance machine to worry about, so all is good on that front.
