part of the old OG FAQ can be found at http://growfaq.net <-- that should answer most of your questions...

yes, definitely... good genetics are a must...

good seeds are expensive, but one crop with controlled pollination will supply you with years of viable seeds... or you can just clone...

although, if it's your first time growing you may want to do a practice run with bagseed first so you don't accidentally kill or ruin your expensive dutch genetics...

Anyone seen one in action, does it work as well as it's supposed to?

if I remember correctly the concept behind that was to get maximum light exposure in a SOG (sea of green) setup... it was pretty much just an overpriced piece of junk imho... a much simpler setup would be to buy more lights, keep the plants on the ground where they belong and use reflective surfaces like mylar...
