For sanity's sake, give it a rest, people!  Hell, if it's so important
to some dealer somewhere to have this product on their shelves, let
'em buy it for what it the producer is charging.  They can mark it up
to $550 if they want (btw, since Goldberg said he wasn't planning on 
making a software profit anyway, what does he care if someone wants 
to go to the trouble of going to Hash directly to save a few bucks 
after spending a few $K on hardware?).  There's usually mail-order
competition on software, anyway. 

And what do any of you care if Hash goes out of business because they 
don't sell enough?!?  Most of you that are bitching just want to get 
your hands on some nice animation software cheap, and it burns you 
that you can't play with it in the stores.  That's your problem, 
not Hash's. 

And if they go out of business because of their pricing policy, 
that's their own damn business, literally, ain't it?  Geezz...

God, our educational system is more $($#ed-up than I had imagined.
