Quoted from rai:

To me, BM66 is a regular (good bad or average) pin masquerading as something special.

The most spot on comment yet about BM66...

Finally was able to play both BM and AS side by side. Software aside, BM was a turd, AS was a breath of fresh air for Stern. AS will outsell BM 10, if not more. The BM playfield looked like it was assembled from leftover parts in the factory parts bin. I expect BM development to be abandoned shortly once its a bit more functional, so they can focus on moving new units of newer games.

Quoted from iceman44:

It's not "by a mile" but go ahead and exaggerate it.
In fact, I actually put both BM66LE and ASLE next to each other in my house, and while i love ASLE, its awesome too, BM66 will get there eventually with Lyman code.
Of course AS is better out of the gate much better at this point. Not by a mile.

Agreed, not by a mile by any means.
Just played both myself side by side last weekend and it was AS by at least a kilometer...
And yes, imo, BM is clunky, playfield looks thrown together and is right there with Avaturd and Avengers. Didn't even bother to finish my last 2 balls on my last game.
You can post 150K times and it's not gonna help the layout or the software, but whatever to make you feel better about your purchase.
Different strokes as they say for each his own. Super theme, super colors, but total fail on the execution.
