RE: Really, Prusa?
I saw this thread and immediately thought of Tim Dillons "influencers helping the homeless" clip... Artesanal mustard indeed.
Has management now officially decided that you are no longer catering to 3D printing enthusiasts but to suckers?

RE: Really, Prusa?
What the Signature Oak has taken away from me -- and from all of Prusa's core customers -- is focus. Focus on the products that matter.
Respectfully, I have to disagree.
Any venture that has been going on as long as this one has, run by the same people, needs to make room for fun or it will burn out. I'm glad that the Prusa team and Josef Prusa allowed themselves some time for something fun and beautiful that solves no problem except the problem of making something artistic.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Do not ask me how I know this 😉

RE: Really, Prusa?
I personally can't understand having a problem with this product. For the *vast* majority of people, it doesn't make sense. It's essentially just a prettier version of the same tool. But what's wrong with that? Prusa isn't taking away anything from everyone who wants a regular printer. At worst, the presumably exorbitant price tag will just take money from those who have it in abundance, and make it available to the company that makes products that we like.
Is it a bit silly to have such a finely-crafted enclosure? Sure. But 250 people are going to cough up the cash, and I'm sure that most of them are going to enjoy their purchase.
