[CUBE] 1gig G3 in Cube?

[Jeff Hallgren]

Sounds like an interesting product but it's the "Powerlogix" part of 
the equation that bothers me... Isn't this just one more product you'll 
fail to support? What if some of your new product is defective? Have 
you guys considered that making interesting hardware is maybe half (or 
less) of running a business and that you need to "be there" for your 
customers?
