BlogCritics Magazine: Imagine going into a bookstore and buying a book out of a machine. It would be like looking through a jukebox or an ATM where you would browse for titles. You would make your choice and wait for it to be printed for you right there. Sound like the wave of the future? That's just what the Espresso does. The Espresso is a $50,000 vending machine that can print, align, mill, glue and bind two books simultaneously in less than seven minutes with full-color laminated covers.
