I don't know much about embroidery machines, but I will share this one experience. A friend bought a White embroidery only machine, the kind that has to be hooked up to a computer to work. When the computer was upgraded to the newest version of Windows the embroidery machine no longer works and SVP is no longer supporting the machine so unless she buys an old computer with an older version of Windows she can't use the machine anymore.
