I unpacked my new expression today and of course I was concerned about having to update the firmware, but it came with firmware 2.31. So I cabled it to my laptop and it works perfectly with both carts and SCAL. So now I just have to get all my scrapbooks done before my baby cricut and my new expression poop out on me. Well, I have always needed a deadline! And BTW - I have never taken the time to go through the SCAL tuts on this forum, but I started today and I have to say that they are so well done! To all the other newbies out there like me, really, (don't do like me) do the tuts! My hearty congratulations to the creators.

Re: UGH! MTC Settlement
I think she's planning on buying one of the smaller machines that only takes 6 inch paper as that is all her budget allows at the moment. Keeping my fingers crossed for her.Jax wrote:If your friend buys a new Expression (especially the colored ones, I have a green one) the firmware is already correct. So all you have to do if plug it in and run it. If she buys an older one then she'll have to upgrade the firmware..I've done it to my other Cricut (Create Machine) but that was a long time ago.
