Yes, and also Tim's point about easily flooding the world with 
identical prints, lowering the scarcity value (which is kinda BS). One 
arguement for the relavence of editioning digital output.
But also the perception of craft. People think this is easy, and if 
it's easy it's not special, therefore it doesn't have much value.
People think we're just picking one of these babies up at Costco, 
pluging it in and hitting the print command. We come off like 
hobbiests.
Hell, if anybody can get one and do it, what are you smokin' to come 
up with that price man?

Should be a game on soon, don't rush it.
