Quoted from jar155:Stern has a lot of problems right now, but I think they're all correctable. Stern leaving the industry would be very, very bad for pinball. Jody Dankberg leaving Stern Pinball and the industry as a whole would be very, very good for pinball.
That wouldn't fix everything at Stern, but boy, it would be a great start.
Ok, I'll just ask - why does this guy's name seem to nearly be embroidered with disdain from the community? Did I miss something, somewhere?
