  No matter how good the product is...if the item is overpriced it just
won't sell.  Think of any computer game that retails for more than...$75 us.
I can think of one..the original price of Xplane....now..not to be rude..but
how many copies of Xplane sold compared to FS2k???

That could be interpreted as a syllogism, therefore all men are socialists

Exactly. But for $35 bucks, I thought it was a good deal and snagged
it. I wasn't thinking about X-Plane, but that's a perfect comparison.
