Curious if RGR owns a single post 2000 Stern pin, or just another WMS fanboy.

Anyhoo, Stern REALLY shoots itself in the marketing foot by releasing incomplete code. Having said that, software companies (especially gaming ones) do this CONSTANTLY. In addition, the Stern rule sets are much more complex compared to what was coming out in the 90's.

The other big "marketing" mistake is rolling out the Pro's first, but it may be more economical for them to get the Pros out first, then followed by the LE's.

Wouldn't be concerned about his (1 person's opinion) review of the "Pro" version on early code. I don't care for the theme, but the AC/DC LE's are looking pretty awesome.

...meaning, he doesn't like Sterns...never has and never will so don't waste people's time (aka, stir the pot up) feigning to give an "objective" review of a new Stern pin. Just say: "Oh, another Stern title. I hate Stern" and leave it at that.

Why? Just because NIB's and a few "A"-listers are thousands of $$$? There are plenty of FUN pins out there that are "affordable".
