A Expensive P.O.S. (Score 1)

Only part of the cost for this POS have been discussed. The first real fly in the soup is that Batteries have a 3 to 5 Year life time, and they are not your car batteries. These unit cost anywhere from $250 to $375 each. Did you want them installed. My guess is that there are atleast 40 of the jewels in the box. Do not forget the 10K dollar fine for each of the little gems that is not disposed of properly. these guy's have a chain of custody document with them the serial number will follow you to your grave. Then there are the contactor, associated with the static switch, they don't last long when they are switch under load, and they are not cheap to replace either. This little jew is designed to suck all the ben's out of your wallet, and you get a pentium, what fun. This is why I read Slashdot, so that I can find some really stupid applications of technology, being offered by individuals that should not be allowed to see the light of day. But the really dumb individuals associated with this offering at the individual who put up the venture capital.
