Re : 3D Printer :

Feedback from a friend & former colleague at HP :

"I think it's more that HP is getting out of the business of reselling 3D printers from Stratasys (see investors.stratasys.com, or see www8.hp.com "

"I was involved in a multi-year investment into 3D printers after I left the xyz group. We were hoping to produce an office-friendly 3D printer, but the project got downsized and eventually cancelled. We got many materials patents in the process."

I sorta knew that, but I wasn't sure how close to the Star Trek synthesizer we actually were.

RE: its a printer, not an object maker/assembler. :-) :-)
