No, no, it was the "we'll see" response you gave your own question.  I wasn't
cutting you down or anything.  Your question was loaded, and your response,
whether or not you intended it so, was hilarious.  I'm in total agreement with
you on your point about $50 being nothing compared with what you've already 
invested in your 48, and I admire your grip on reality and your willingness to
support an upgrade fee.

HONKIN' MONSTROUS DISCLAIMER HERE:  Upgrades are *FREE*!  Ian and I are 
talking about a theoretical "upgrade fee" -- to my knowledge, HP hasn't 
initiated such a fee.  Don't ask me whether they will; I don't work in 
Corvallis.  And don't go starting any rumors.

It would appear that CU students don't have a sense of humor, either.  Move 
over, Stanford.
