Do you have the Curio?



Do you have an opinion about the Curio? I'm curious as to what people think of them. My daughter has one, uses it occasionally, and enjoys it. Beyond that, I don't know much, or how it compares to similar machines.


I don't have a vinyl cutter yet. I'm looking at the Silhouette Curio, Portrait 2, and the Brother Design N Cut.

I like my other Brother products and would ordinarily choose them, but I don't know anything about their protocol. Silhouette has been very open about their protocol in the past[1]. They use a variant of HPGL and there are a few open source tools that allow you to drive their plotters/cutters.

I just bought two Brother "Die Cutters" last week for my Technology Lab for Head Start myself.
