I'm not sure where I personally stand on this, but to summarize a thread I 
read on another list. The price has gone from $60 per machine per year to 
$179 or more without a matching increase in service. I don't remember what 
he was comparing, but I remember reading six-fold increase, so he must be 
using different numbers.
