Saw this really smart 3D printer build on Make's website today -- although they haven't launched yet (co-created by the team that made Grbl).

It seems to be an extremely simple (too simple almost) and cost-effective alternative to the Cartesian-linear configuration, although it might add some software complexity, but nothing extraordinary.
Are there any weaknesses to this particular kind of setup -- why hasn't it been explored more often?
