We decided not to sell the Toaster without RAMs for several reasons.
The Toaster is not being sold as a kit, but as a professional
tool. Not only were RAMs expensive, but they were also hard to find
at all, even for a large purchaser, never mind some Video sneeb in
Des Moines.

As we were telling folks at Ami-Expo L.A., prices are
now starting to drop and availability is getting better. Everyone in
the company is working to get Toaster out ASAP.
