Craftsman Compucarve

Looking for a Christmas/Birthday present idea for me? Probably not, at least not at $1800, but in case you are I would like to make a case for the Craftsman Compucarve. I saw an ad on TV for this the other night (who knew TV ads still worked). Here is the description from Sears.com:

Compact, computer-controlled, 3-dimensional woodworking machine with an easy-to-use interface. It allows a novice to make a complete project without a shop full of tools.The unique configuration allows it to perform many other woodworking functions, including ripping, cross cutting, mitering, contouring, jointing and routing. The CompuCarve can work in most soft materials, including wood, plastics (polycarbonate or cast acrylic) and certain types of high density foam. Set includes CompuCarve machine, (1) 1/16 in. carbide carving bit, (1) 1/8 in. carbide cutting bit, CarveWright Memory Card, starter software package, (2) 1/4 in. bit adaptors, vacuum bag adaptor, bit removal tool, hex wrench, owner’s manual and Quick Start Guide

Now you can’t tell me that isn’t cool. From doing a little reading, it sounds like you can even import images and the software will work out how to carve them. Can you imagine the possibilities?
