Actiontech router?

[Janina Sajka]

Bill, I have to agree. Let's see if this math is about right ...

$900 for Win-Eyes. I believe it's cheaper than JFW these days.
 160 for Windows
 	100 for Partition Magic

	Plus maybe $30 or $40 for the sighted assistant? Nah, it'll take
	more than that, because he'll have to install and configure, and
	PM takes time to run. Make that $100-150 for the assistant.

	So, that's around $1,300 to $1,400 just to configure a router?

	Not.
