I've been watching that project closely. The price is really tempting, and if the software is anything like what they're promising, that will be a huge improvement over any other laser manufacturer.
I have concerns, mostly because there is no direct connection to the laser, you must use their cloud server to control your machine. So, if they go out of business, or decide to change their business strategy, or someone trips over the office server's power cord... you own a $2000 paperweight.
And... whenever you open the lid, the camera takes your picture and uploads it to the server. WTF?I have concerns, mostly because there is no direct connection to the laser, you must use their cloud server to control your machine.

what the heck...
I'm getting ZIM vibes from this: does its primary function very well, but is overloaded with tangental features and locked down by the proprietary police
