I dont believe in dimishing return theory. If somethings perceptably
better, it doesnt matter HOW MUCH MORE it costs, its still desireable
and worth it to those that can afford it. Reminds me of Hi-Fi. I bought
a $6K phono setup. My family thinks I am crazy, but I know people with
$30K turntable setups, and guess what, they do sound better than $6K
setups. To each his own...

It's the law of diminishing returns, isn't it?

Is a Porsche Carrera worth two Corvettes?  Is a Ferrari F430 worth 2
Porsches?  The performance certainly isn't doubled in each case, because
that would be impossible.  If I had the money, I know what I'd be
driving...

cheers,
