Quoted from Wolfmarsh:
I think there are two points you left out about Stern that are positive as well.
- Stern has stability. If pinball loses some popularity, Stern has a proven track record of being able to pull through that. I don't know if JJP could survive that.
- Stern's Pro level gives some of the best value in pinball in my opinion, aside from the argument that they could be cheaper (and have been in the past).

Stern was able to do that when there wasn't any other competition. I still think they'd have the best chance of being the last man standing, but that's not a given.

Quoted from MrArt2u:
We haven’t bought a NIB Stern for our location since GB’s last code update 2 1/2 years ago. Voting with my dollars.

Voting with my wallet too. I sold my GB and have not/will not buy another Stern NIB for the same reason. I'd rather wait the extra months to get a JJP with nearly complete code than 'hope' Stern will complete code when they get around to it if ever. 2 1/2 years... seriously Stern?!?!
