eBay item 7516975964 DON'T BID

Howdy. This is shitty buisness practice: the Laser is an orphan (no
longer made and no parts supply). Don't bid on it unless you are rich.
emailed DeadBeat (er.... Deborah) last nite, Phoned Biolase today, and
got this back from DeadBeat and shot back the last part:

Is it headed for a museum? Someone should donate it. Good work, SP.
Hope you're keeping well,

Howdy Sabra! Nice to see you're back!. I'm OK... Hope the baby didn't
wear you out too much.... ;-)
Re: the DioLase: No, it is not headed for a museum; it's headed for some
young, naive dentist who sees a cheap opportunity to jump into the Laser
in Dentistry business. What they don't know (but should) is that a
proficiency course is mandatory in North America before handling a
dental Laser in a real mouth. IT-re-bicycling knows this, I can't
imagine otherwise. She is supposed to have it certified by the current
owner of the Intellectual rights to the equipment as well. This is now
Biolase. It was made originally by American Dental Technologies
originally, but they stopped making them a long time ago. All the parts
have been sold to service existing units. I phoned Biolase to find out
what's what with the Diolase (and my own M1, which is also dead) and
they told me in no uncertain terms that the unit is a technological
orphan at this point. This is the 'scrungy' side of eBay.
