No, for most electronics, the retail price is five to ten times parts price. Sean and others have said that the VFD is way expensive. Which is why the Receiver is less expensive. The nearly free cost of netbooks and nettops is amazing, I wonder how anyone can make any profit at their current costs. After buying three SB, a Duet, Boom and Transporter, it should be clear when I stand on the value vs price discussion. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
