I would hope that a professional-grade espresso machine would produce a better result than a $249 Nespresso.
considering the price of those coffee pucks plus the 250 or so for the machine I figure it will take about a year to pay for a decent espresso (400 bucks or so) maye 2 to 3 years to pay for a commercial set up, my relatively cheap Saeco/Gaggio has been going strong for 7 years and still makes great coffee.
