[CUBE] powerlogix in europe an NYC

[Meirion Roscoe]

I agree wholeheartedly.  And Robert, if you are reading this you can 
certainly add me to the list of people who greatly appreciate the work 
you do for older Macs.  However, I can not (financially) and will not 
(out of blind principle) stump up the vast sums of money req'd by 
European distributors (I'm in the UK) for a Powerlogix upgrade; 
regardless of how much I REALLY want one.  If the difference between 
Euro and US prices was halved, it would still be outrageous, but I 
would do my very best to stretch to it - and without the assistance of 
a clairvoyant I think I could certainly predict very healthy European 
order books for you.  Erik Ableson said it very well when he said that 
maybe a smaller more dedicated, new 'supplier' would be a lot more 
beneficial to the Mac fraternity over here.  Maybe you two guys should 
talk to each other!!

Cheers

Rossi
