I am a newbie here. I have been a lurker for a short time and really found this site to be very informative. Not smoke, reality. So my learned cohorts I need help. I am trying to decide between the 2 machines. I have reviewed all the specs so I am aware of the differences. That said, equally equipped with 60W tubes, they aren't a great deal different. As a startup I am also considering things like support, MTBF rates, duty cycles, maintenance and refurbishing costs. I would really like to hear from the experienced community their thoughts on the pros and cons of either the equipment, the company, and anything else they would be willing to share. I know that opens me up to a lot but I think I can handle it. Fire away!
