Stereo lithography in the news

I don't know if anyone saw the article at the New York Times
on-line. Buried in the middle of the story is talk of HP entering the 3d
printing (Bunny Burner) business, that would sell for as little as $1000.00
and they were thinking about building "a high-cost stereo lithographic
printer, code-named Zorro".

It's nice yet terrifying to see a company like HP jump in with a $1000
printer. IF the quality is there what will that do to Service
Bureaus? Will all those smaller parts be built in house? Even a dedicated
hobbyist could contemplate buying a "Bunny Burner".
