i have to agree with the dr. i have seen the ultimaker2 running at makerfaire and its seemed really nice but being here in the US i would want my printer company to be here. its just easier and cheaper to get the printer and or parts down the road. on the other hand ultimaker may have a good dealer network here in the states where the printer and service parts can be supplied from. i have no idea and if that is the case then by all means go with it.
