I bought the FFCX rebadge from Monoprice when it was on sale for $700 (it's been on sale for that price again since).

AFAIC, that was the best value, esp since Monoprice provides warranty service and they are close in LA.

I was looking for compatibility with Makerware, cause my (brief) experience with other software involved a lot of failed prints and futzing around trying to get it to work.
