I am addressing this question to the entire list, in case anyone else is also
interested,
but this question is really to Jeff Vance.

My understanding of the initial offering of the HP3000 918 DX was that the
price was
going to try to be around $7,000.  This was before an every increasing list of
software
vendors (which I think is good, but..).  Is the price going to stay around
$7,000, or
is the system priced at $7,000 plus $450 for Adager, plus $400 for Lund, plus
$295 for QSS,
plus $600 for Robelle plus $450 for VESoft, plus whatever 52% off of something
costs?

Is this price now creaping backup there again to a level that is out of range
for the smaller
developer?
