    That's a false statement made by someone a while back. Sad it still sticks around. There was an incorrect assumption that the extra connection at the top of the extruder assembly applied additional resistance to the wires. It does, but extremely small amount and doesn't affect the temp reading at all. The thermistor reading is adjusted for this change in resistance, variances in production of the Thermistor and many other changes. My tests with my Dreamer have shown it's temp to be pretty consistent and pretty correct. Not that the Pro's not better, it is in a few ways. But the Dreamer is a great printer. The $100 difference to the Pro does get you a better machine for someone who's into the 3D thing for a long time though. The extruder on the Pro is more standardized allowing for more options of upgrades later down the road, if that makes any difference to you. The Dreamer looks better sitting on a desk being smaller and more stylistic, if that matters. (personal opinion of course...) and has a few more features. Here's a good side by side if that helps: http://findstuff1.com/flashforge-cre...er-review.html
