We just got one for a system here for a grand total of about $56 shipped. I
hear from another person on a list that he got one for like $60 and then he
got a $40 rebate. Can't beat that!
Before I bought, a friend told me this (paraphrased):
"I'd either go top of the line if you'll use the heck out of it, or as cheap
as you can find if you'll use it an average amount."
I basically did the latter, but I did go so far as to get a brand which I
recognize (though I forget which brand it was...).

No, my friend, the way to have good and safe government, is not to trust it
all to one, but to divide it among the many, distributing to every one exactly
the functions he is competent to. It is by dividing and subdividing these
republics from the national one down through all its subordinations, until it
ends in the administration of every man's farm by himself; by placing under
every one what his own eye may superintend, that all will be done for the
best.
