I think the reasoning went something like this:  Pricing was becoming a
nightmare for the sales people since some people would call up and
complain that other people bought the same software for a differant
price (for the same type of machine).  You we just decided to fix
charges to match Digital's sceme.  Personally, I can't believe we charge
more than $125 per site, but it's paid for my car and my plane so I'm
not going to be the first in line to complain...
