Many of us paid BIG money for these kind of items to begin with, so I
am not sure having everything for free or very inexpensive is actually
good for the community. It seems to me, that people who get everything
for free, get used to it and don't want to pay for anything...
I especially see this with regard to for pay software. Quit different
to spend 60$ on software when you spen $1000 on a MP2100, versus 60$ on
software when the MP2100 cost $50?
Just a thought,
Marty
