I would be more general. I would wordsmith it as inexpensive hardware
or much lower cost than similar solutions, etc. However, I would say I
wouldn't make it a huge focus of this press release anyhow. We hit it
pretty hard last time. It is more value to business users, an
installfest is probably more aimed at attracting home users.

I don't think so. I was thinking the exact same thing. He had a really
nice setup at the place he was at.
