I know people say stern are charging too much for games now, but looking at homepin's ops, everything seems very labour intensive. I guess it would be great to have equipment to automate a lot of processes but not economical given the numbers. Also contracting out may enabling dealing with orgs with access to automation, you then pay for it anyway. So take away the Chinese costs advantage, pinball manufacturing and margins may not be that great??? I dunno. Do you envisage Mike once business ramps up and becomes accepted by other manufacturers, that a lot of the labour intensive stuff you have presented to us can or will be automated to achieve mass production. And being in China will that also lower costs further making pinball more affordable? Thanks
