It is "component", not "componant".

Oh god I want one. I'm betting it's going to be substantially out of my price range though. The M3ID was pushing it. =X

"MakerGear printers are designed and constructed with an uncompromising commitment to quality—without sacrificing the components critical to precision, repeatability, and durability. "

Rick, this sentence should be revisited. Commitment to quality does not suggest any sacrifice.

Maybe something like "MakerGear printers are designed and constructed with an uncompromising commitment to quality. MakerGear components are selected to assure precise and repeatable printing and long-term durability"

While you are at it, a careful edit of the brochure might discover "ABBIENT" among others.

<Sigh> Yeah.. Was ready to pull the trigger on the M3ID, guess I have waited this long I can wait to see how much the Ultra One will be in less than a week.

Thank you jferguson

@kskiff & monkeyscript:

The Ultra One is intended for industrial use and is a beast (weighs over 100 lbs). You really need to see it to appreciate the work that goes into it.

We'll be looking for ways to get the cost/weight down for a more general purpose machine but that is going to take some time.

My better angels (there must be one somewhere) suggested that I not share this observation with you, but ....
We bought a Dyson Vacuum cleaner - the one that looks like a golf ball - and yes it was pricey. The box it came in had an obvious noun-verb disagreement in large letters which led me to Email a photo of it to a friend. He said it was intentional. Dyson wanted everyone to know that his shop was run by engineers, not marketing types.

I apologize....
