Or if your not one of the franchisees then you may want to check into the copyright of the name and fix it before you get started and have to change once customers get used to doing business with you. You realy don't want any lawsuits on your hands. Second if your new to embroider than Amayas are great choices, as was mentioned before Embroidery has a steep learning curve and the technology on amayas uses a different approach to standard embroidery than other vendors and if you have no experience its a quick and easy system to learn. If you HAVE experience with embroidery you may look at other machines and go with what fits your budget and requirements. one thing you'll see form the Amaya user groups is that people who go amaya after using standard machines have been known to have a little trouble adapting to the way things are done with Amayas, No not everyone, but even I had a couple weeks of using both styles and trying to remember that things work differently. Anyway just my 2 cents, I would buy Amaya again in a heartbeat! I love my machines, and the new technology. Leaves my mind to think about other issues not my machines.
