I totally believe that these printers are technically amazing. That’s why I made the Apple vs. beige box analogy. Those M-series chips and their hardware quality are way better. But there is stronger lock-in.

I’ve been burned so many times by other products that I think my wariness is more than justified.

And I’m not alone, which is why this is “classic”.

(But the pricing is really good. I think I’ll wait and see a bit more)

I think this is a valid analogy. Albeit, one that makes me all the more excited to buy a Bamboo. I’ve been a software engineer for a while now and personally I adore Apple’s approach to products. It just works. I don’t have to spend time fucking around with things I don’t want to. And most importantly, IT JUST WORKS.

I hate what a pain it is to just get straight lines to print on my 3D printer! It shouldn’t be this hard.

Granted, hopefully a swing towards Bamboo will put pressure on the other players in the market and they’ll up their game so that all the non-enthusiasts who just want to print can select from a variety of products.
