If you can't see it, then I don't think I'll be able to point it out. I'll give you a hint, though. This whole "haha I have a beer chill out dude" thing, where you're ending your post in sarcastic smileys? kinda reinforcing your whole douchebag vibe. Either you're actually so used to talking to people like an internet shitposter that you don't see how you came off as condescending, or you do see that, but want to be a dick about trying to get me to point out which individual words you've said that come off as asinine to further your own amusement at how clever you think you are. Either or, I'm not taking part. If you want to keep talking about printers, kay, but if you're going to keep up this act, I'm really not interested in further conversation with you.

To reiterate my original point, you clearly don't have experience with any other printers at the same price point as your Makerbot. However, you may either have experience, or secondhand experience via some anecdotal evidence from a friend of a friend, with a cheaper printer, and think those are representative of the midlevel to entry level professional printer scene. If you look at the service options available from companies like Printrbot, Ultimaker, and Lulzbot, you'll see an impressive amount of service available for vastly more capable and reliable machines than yours.
