    Quoted from Crash:

    TheProgrammer, I would recommend posting this to Twitter referencing #righttorepair and @fighttorepair. Louis Rossmann is basically the face of this movement and if he can respond, maybe Stern will think twice before engaging in this type of anti-consumer behavior. This very specific type of problem with niche hardware and software is right up his alley.

    I agree. Insider Trading should be EASY to use and access.

    If you have paid HUNDREDS extra to engage in Insider Trading you shouldn't have these ridiculous issues!

    The very name of this 'product' conjures up suspicion. Anything with 'insider' in the name should be treated with the utmost suspicion. What data is Stern collecting from this insidious effort? They certainly aren't telling customers ANYTHING about this.

    Quoted from TrixTrix:

    Amazing how some Pinsiders are always looking for evil intent...

    Not at all - this is something that should NEVER have happened - period!

    There simply is no excuse nor logical explanation.

    Quoted from DakotaMike:

    Except that Stern is likely to be in business for many decades to come.

    Some serious speculation here. Companies and businesses go broke and close daily, even HUGE ones!

    I see no proof or guarantee of any sort that makes Stern immune from issues in the future that might well bankrupt them.

    'Things' go in and out of favor all the time - what if the current fever pitch interest in pinball declines to the point where it just isn't possible for Stern to continue producing games? It is more than possible.

    Of course nobody wants to see this happen to ANY company - but it does, daily!

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    Do you mean Insider *connect*?
    "Insider trading" is something completely different...

    Nope - anything that has the word "insider" in it is super suspicious to me as it 'sounds like' insider trading no matter what it is talking about.

    It's a word/phrase I would avoid like the plague if I was a company like Stern.
