I think we are converging here. My real gripe was with Pete's statement
that the pricing formula determines the size of your production run, I think
this is backwards at least when applied to the AS/400. I don't think
the argument can be made that:  "I'm not going to sell you one, because
doing so does not maximize my profit".
