It's weird to say, but there might soon be a day when there's a Vex version of FRC.
Personally, although there are a number of things FIRST doesn't really do right, I'd much rather have a non-profit like USFIRST organize my robotics competition that a company like IFI. I have mixed feelings as to whether or not competiton will really improve things, as once you buy into either Tetrix or Vex, you tend to stick with that system.
