Sawstop demo and thoughts

[johnnyb]

Anybody see the sawstop demo at Harrogate or elsewhere. Very exciting in the flesh and as doug mentioned slick as the Torrey canyon.
Will it be a great success? Or is it out of hobbiests means. It's the sort of advance that makes you go if only it was on everything! I found it interesting they choose a non woodworker to demo. His pitch was perfect. A very compelling case.
Are they taking the us by storm? Outselling the unisaw?

Our brothers and sisters across the pond seem much more gung ho regards guarding on saws. I have a number of US based team members and salaries and disposable income are higher in US than UK for the same roll, so priced in dollars against higher base salaries the saw is likely more affordable. Overall I think it won't see the same success here as it does in the US.
