Perhaps that tells you there is a lot of work in PAL software.

Or they don't want to give away information to competitors who
make PAL devices.

That information is available to the right vendors. It is not
generally available unless you are willing to submit to a
certification process.

Yup.

I would guess $500 is too low for a Sun version, but why do you
care what the PC version costs? Emotional, irrational jealousy?

(I do not speak for AMD.)
