Well, if you're big enough to look past my views on MVP, I think I can let
it slide. Many thanks for your response. And, BTW, $1200 is 25% of the
budget for this project, that's a big chunk of change.

P.S. And because I have been heckled to death on this issue, I feel the
need to clarify because I believe you have mis-characterized my position
on this. Regardless of whether or not MVP is the greatest thing since
sliced bread and never, ever, in a million years caused anyone to every
act unethically or fail to think for themselves, it is still compensation
from a vendor and hence something that IT professionals should not engage
in. It is a slippery slope and if IT is to ever achieve the status of a
profession, something that will eventually have to be addressed.
