Ditto what John said. In addition to the finishing options available from a pro lab, I don't have to deal with maintaining ink inventory, paper selection/testing, monitor/printer calibration, the initial capital investments, too much room on my desk, and yet another device to maintain a driver or that can fail in my workflow.
