Depends on where the bottlenecks are, Stern may have plenty of labor but a shortage of parts.

True story- A few months ago I ordered a bed control for a hospital bed because the replaceable hook on the back of the remote is not available separate. How stupid is that? So weeks go by with no bed remote. I call my rep to ask what is going on and they contact the company who makes the beds.

What caught her eye was all the beds they sell were on backorder, ALL OF THEM.

Seems there is a shortage of remotes to the point not only could they not supply replacement parts they didn't have any to ship with beds!

-Move the QR reader to coin door location while the concept is in its infancy.

-Make Limited Edition machines unlimited for the duration of the license contract to help keep a fair and consistent supply to the large growing list of distributors(not enough allocation) and eliminate scalpers on second hand market.

-Open up the lines of communication so distributors have clear information to communicate to their customers.

-Increase beta testing with key figures to help reduce warranty and qc issues and lower overall cost.

-Eliminate the home version pinball with no coin door(at $4000+ this concept is dead)

-Start a new division capitalizing on the virtual pinball market and introduce official Stern licensed virtual machines.

-Not sure I could move or live in Chicago, stay off Pinside-keep my mouth shut-but I do love pinball and have ideas.
