No, I wouldn't pay that much, but I wouldn't pay out more than, say $25 for
all the UNIX boxes on the planet either, and that only if they were already
broken down into their varous scrap types, e.g. steel, aluminum, plastics,
etc. I've yet to see even one piece of software that would be of serious use
to me that runs under UNIX. I know that I could force myself to use Netscape,
but I really don't want to.

I doubt anyone willing to make the inane comments you've made so far could
provide any sort of support.

If you're saying that you'd _buy_ that setup, please send me you're
snail-mail address off-list. I'd really like to establish a fee-based
support contract. :) Really high-end PC hardware isn't much better than
midrange, but
low-end hardware is a verifiable black hole. To wit, it is guaranteed
to suck.
Low-end would cost on the order of $150.
You'd starve on our service work.
