Huh?  It is extremely well priced on the price/perf. curve in comparison
with anything else in its class.  If you know of anything else even
close then please post real numbers.

As for support, well Apple are claiming they'll do support which will
rival the very best in the market (eg. IBM, or HP's networking gear),
and for free.  It's hard to know how good it will be before it gets
rolling, of course....
