can be useful at times. but wat if u wan to cut a curve line? it will be irritating if the laser ray is still there. i think it can be switch off. and if u cut without any break in between den a perfect straight cut will be done. but if u stop for a while? den the laser line that appear will not be the original line. and if u slant a bit, den the laser line will be slant too and u will have a ugly paper.
