Hi all,
anybody has any experience with that:

?
Yes, I'm currently in the process of getting the DREM working with a Tandy 6000
and Xenix. ...
About $250? Wish it were half that. Seems like they could sell more than
twice as many at half the price, and more than 4 times as many at 1/4th the
price.
Really? Come on guys, this stuff costs $$’s to produce and they may actually
want to make some profit. If you’re doing small volume stuff (10’s-100’s vs
100,000’s - 1,000,000’s) it’s going to be a bit pricey. Frankly, to get the
price to drop to half ($125), you’d probably have to get 10x-100x quantity
increase. I know because I face the same thing when trying to produce my
boards. Assembly will typically double the cost of the board + components.

Just saying, it'd be nice if the price could be much lower, as it's way beyond
my budget at this point in life. Realized after posting that it doesn't
scale down pricewise linearly due to the fixed materials cost + well-deserved
profit margin. Without knowing those numbers, can't accurately speculate. But
I do think that in some cases, more *total profit* could be had by a lower
pricepoint.
