I'm not going to disagree as such (I have no idea what the wholesale
cost of these machines is but I assume it is fine, or if it isn't that
someone else sells one that is cheap enough.)

I think that we can stipulate that quite inexpensive machines are
possible, and concentrate on discussing what they might run (which is
a much wider discussion -- see the last couple of days of
discussion...)
