Confused re SCAL and cricut
Re: Confused re SCAL and cricut
Provo Craft (PC) decided to sue every maker that caused them to lose money by people bypassing their cartridges. Most settled with the company by just removing Cricut support or usage.
Rumors were created by PC that if you use anything other than their items, it will break their products and void their warranty. So if your Cricut catches fire because of the cheap chinese parts in the machine but you use SCAL, well it was the software that caused it, that's what they are going to say.
SCAL 3.0 does not support the Cricut machines. So if you have 2.## or 1.## you can still use it and there will be support till December, but you can no longer purchase those versions.
That's everything in a nutshell..Hope it helped.

If you aren't learning something new everyday you might as well just lie in a grave and wait for death.

Re: Confused re SCAL and cricut
I can't tell but as the old saying goes..."If it ain't broke...don't fix it"....If your Cricut is currently working with the current configuration then just keep using it...
