  Well, I just have to throw in my 2 cents...I don't know if this is a
good
price for these units and it doesn't really matter to me because you
couldn't
*make* me buy anything made by HDS.  The HDS X-terms that I've worked with
have been complete garbage; constantly broken and in for service, monitors
going fritzy, stuff like that.  HDS may have improved the quality of their
product or I may have just got a bad crop, but I'd be cautious about
buying
anything from them.
