Hi Steve,

you're probably right. Not the pure strenght makes the computer desireable as we
well know (another example is the Novag Robot). However, what makes the R40 a
little bit less valuable than it potentially could be, is in my eyes the
existence of the R30. The only difference between the two is only the cpu and
the ram (and the cooling), the "feeling" to play them should be therefore very
similar. Or, let me put it this way: If there was no R30 in the world, the value
of the R40 would be probably even higher than it is now. Although I'd like to
own one, I must confess that I would not be willing to pay the stellar prices,
if one of the five (or some unknown unit?) would appear on eBay one day. But
very likely the same applies to Fidelity A/G #10 for example... :)

R30 Regards,
Martin
