Does anyone out there currently own a MakerBot Printer? If so, which one?

I don't own them, but I work with a Replicator 2 and Replicator 2X on a daily basis.

Well, I'm currently a student in High School. I'm sixteen, to be seventeen in December and currently in my Jr. year.
I have a paid position in my school working to fix computer problems the teachers and students have, and it just so happens that I was in the right place at the right time and got picked to work the printers.

Wow awesome. I'm 31 so I am out of touch with what's going on in Highschools. So you guys have a couple printers in the school for students to learn on? Every highschool in the US should have a couple, as they are the future.

Interesting you guys talk about 3D printers in High Schools. This is my senior year, hate it so much I'm finishing up in Dec. Around the same time they will be selling our engineering program because the teacher is retiring, and because he is so bad, no one takes his classes. They have a brand new HAAS CNC mill that has never actually been used, I may make an offer to buy the tools and equipment. I really wish we would have had a better, more proactive teacher in the engineering dept. I don't regret the way things have turned out, however, I really do wish it would have been good enough to take the classes and gain something from it.
Printer will print perfect...
