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.
