This is a strange day, I'm following up my own article.  I was talking
with salesman who sold me my gear, saying I had a "friend" who wanted
to know how much the same system would cost for him.  The salesman
said to please tell my "friend" to ask for Mark.  I said I would if he
would give my "friend" a discount.  He said he would try, but couldn't
promise anything. This must be bordering on some ethical misconduct
somewhere, but maybe it all balances out.  I suggest you put these
guys to the test, ask for Mark and mention that he sold me a machine
for $2450.  If he wants a customer sent his way he ought to pay for
it.
