People, we have an Amaya and at first had a few problems--it was one of the
first ones out.  Melco bent over backwards to assist us.  We got a second
machine and then decided to go in for tech training since Rod was going to
retire soon.  We actually got the great experience of working on our first
machine.  I really wanted to bring it back home with us after we finished
with it.  The Amaya is such a precision machine that it acts a little bit
differently from the EMT.  We run the dickens out of our machine and love
it.  Melco has always been VERY helpful and really do have you, their
customer's, best interest at heart.  I don't know who you are talking to,
but we have always been treated very well.  If you feel you have not been
treated well, please ask to talk to someone higher up.  Don't be
discouraged.  Melco is a great company and the Amaya is a great machine.
