    Quoted from PanzerFreak:

    Exactly. We are talking about a mode for a pinball machine not NASA programming code for a new nuclear powered Mars rover. Heck, NASA is probably quicker. This is not a knock against Sterns programmers who are awesome but rather about Stern management stretching programming staff thin.

    Well, this leaves room for volunteers to release some personnal programming instead of Stern no?

    Well, well, well...

    I'm sure Stern is only fixing issues (incluing code) to make further sales... If there is no demand for rerun a pin lot, then they won't do anything... Only short term money is motivating them.

    Maybe to maintain their brand image, like for BM66, can be a reason also...

    I'm sure that if pinheads stop buying NIB and the sales go downward, they will react
