  • I use it quite a bit when I need to study for a cert. Maybe some of the more advanced features have a learning curve but just using it as a flash card system that also syncs up with Ankidroid on my phone was extremely easy to setup and use. The only cost was time to make the cards and the minute or two it took to install.


  • Almost certainly. The issue often isn’t difficulty to repair but knowing what the error codes mean since they are pretty nonsensical. The company that builds them sued a company that made an add-on that made troubleshooting them significantly easier (the FTC sided with the company making the add-on). McDonald’s corporate owns a large chunk of the company that makes the machines and also the company that provides the technicians. The technicians are usually done within a couple minutes because it is usually just a machine reset.

    These are really not that niche. Every fast food company has similar devices but does not have machines that often breakdown and require waiting several hours for a technician to show up and fix the problem in a few minutes.
