I don't know what Patrick is thinking, but personally I someday hope to
own a desk with rackmounts areas in one or both pedestles, in addition
to under the monitor bridge.
As to the D10, that is a lot more than I was thinking to spend.
Remeber, I said top end from 4 years ago or low end new. Not top end
new. Aaron, do you think that what you said would also apply to older
Intellistations, like the A-Pro, M-Pro, or Z-Pro?
