Which type of MHM are you thinking on? You may want to look at a S.Roque also. They were our two finalists, but for the features the S.Roque had the MHM beat by like 15% I believe it was. We got a ECO which is comparable to the S-type.

I haven't even considered the S. Roque. I'll look into them. I think we were gonna get an Extreme

Eric, call me.  I cannot type well enough to e mail.  As to the S Roque it is a copy of an MHM S Type.  Nice press but still a copy.  The same as the TUF press was a copy of the MHM SA.  I like the I Pad control on the Xtreme.

You would be looking at a ECO then. There is a guy that runs like 6 MHM's and has switched to the S.Roque. Out of respect for him I'm not going to post his info, but pm me and I'll get you the info.  He was SUPER helpful for us and a great guy to talk to. 
I have nothing against the MHM, but when I was in my final decision stages I did a lot of comparisons between MH M and S.Roque.

I am sorry I suggested a copy according to Printficient. I really have no vested interest or gain in either press, well that may not be totally accurate, another S.Roque would grow our numbers on the forum here to a staggering 3!

And really, if we want to split hairs here Printficient, wouldn't MHM kind of be a copy of a S.Roque? Considering that S.Roque as a company has been around and making machines longer than MHM?

Really I am not trying to start a pissing contest or argument here, I was just trying to give advice to a fellow printer based on my experience when deciding on a press, and having MHM being a finalist.

The more and more I am active on forums, the more I come to realize that people have different tones to the way they type and can more than likely be mistaken for something it's not. So I have been setting myself to say what I say and not let how people take my post (for more than what I intended). I do my part and I set myself to be content with that. I've been less riled this way. I'm happier these days but someone else may not be...and so be it. I am less likely to know of it or be bothered with it. :)
