I own the legacy vertical one as well and I'm not impressed with it. I wish I would have bought the universal one they where offering for a short period of time. I think the price of the revo was too close to the model 900 to ever really take off. If the Revo was a $495 machine instead of $800 I think it would have sold better. I bought a model 200 well after they had been discontinued. In fact is was one of the members of our group that took a long time to decide to let it go. I hounded him for years until the time was right for both of us. That little machine can do things the 900 and Revo could only dream of :-) After doing some minor mods, it really starts to shine as a small portable wonder.
