Jay Caragay replied to Karl's discussion 'Commercially; What machine would you choose?'

Certainly, the lure of being the First And Only Synesso is a tempting mistress. But are you ready to be the one and only service for the machine? Are you ready for parts to be shipped from Seattle USA at whatever timeframe? Are you ready to be out t…
