I have been reading this board for quite some time now and want to thank everyone for the valuable information that is shared here.
I looked at many different systems, but last week I saw a demo of a Xenetech XLT 1325 40 Watt. I was pretty impressed. The following day I ordered the bigger Xenetech XLT 2436 60 Watt. I really struggled between the 40w and 60w, but the sales rep came down a little and I have read alot that you should go as big as you can. Ended up spending a little more than I had anticipated (this seems to happen to me alot), but at least I shouldn't have regrets down the road.
The main reason I went with Xenetech is because the sales rep/tech rep are only about 30 minutes from me in North Idaho. The owner of the machine I saw demoed said the support and training from the rep have been outstanding. As this is a totally new arena for me, I thought having local support may be invaluable. Also, the rep is a certified Corel instructor, and while I am quite computer savy, I have not delved in the graphics area too much.
Anyhow, just wanted to get my first post in here and say thanks - I am looking forward to playing/learning with my laser, it should be here and installed in about 2 1/2 weeks.
