Here's the thing about espresso machines: their simplicity is what makes them genius. At least for me. When I need coffee stat because it's 9:00 and I wanted to be at work at 9:00 but I'm at home because what I REALLY wanted to do (and did) was ride my bike for an hour or so and go to the farmer's market and take an extra great shower, I can't abide by all the steps that making press coffee requires. With a simple espresso machine, i dump a mug of arrowhead in the top, throw a scoop each of Illy caff and decaf (no need to get carried away!), pop the mug underneath the drip (carafes, who needs 'em) and run around trying to get everything in order, and then i have a mug of steaming chewy black gold to run around with moments later... and i didn't have to touch the thing or watch it or anything.

I have friends who have high tech espresso machines... and their complicated temperament is equally as vexing as French pressing.

Just use a coffee machine, you say? As. If.
