Shares of Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq: SSYS) and 3D Systems Corp. (NYSE: DDD) moved higher mid-day on Wednesday after Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) said Windows 8.1 will support 3D printing.
Speaking today at the Build conference, Microsoft's Antoine Leblond said printing 3D is "just as easy and seamless as printing in 2D." He then demoed the process by printing a vase from Windows 8.1 to a MarketBot Replicator 2. Microsoft plans to sell the Replicator 2 in its stores.
MarketBot recently agreed to merge with Stratasys.
