Some times it not about innovation just for innovation sake but about perfecting solid ideas that all ready work in the real world.Just because somebody has a new idea does not make it a worth while invention.look at all the new junk inventions you see on tv that promise to be the next big thing you need to make life easier.My shelf and tons of people have thought of new ideas but don't have the money to actually produce it.So were would we be without company like stigma that strive to put out well made machines with perfected ideas based on what has come before while at the sametime adding there own spin on it?
But I get what your saying mike-everyone wants to make a buck.
