I agree. Let's also ask Sun why a 30k computer has a 90 day warranty.

(Answer: Well, you see, we, uh, have this here maintenance contract and it
only adds a leeeetle bit to the cost of the machine, and you get SO MUCH
MORE protection and peace of mind)

I just wish Sun would drop their maintenance contracts down to what Apple
charges.
