    Not everyone needs to be an open source die hard, and that doesn’t necessarily take away from the products quality.

    Yes, it’s just a factor among many we all use to make the best decision we can about which product to buy. And yes, it’s also disappointing they used an Open-Source identity to fuel early sales and now turn their back on it more and more.

      Man, the early reprap kit market is not at all comparable to what we have today. Prusa has become a prosumer oriented company. I don’t think it was even a word when the company started.
