Sorry CJ, maybe I didn't phrase my question particularly well.

I know what an APU is and what it does, but earlier on this and other threads that compare aircraft types, the lack of an APU is often regarded as a negative point.

4. Lack of availability of suitable pilots. Flying these aircraft commercially and safely will be no job for low-timers and I don't know many pilots of "grown-up" bizjets (Myself included) who would want to trade to work in a toothpaste tube without an APU unless there were some serious salaries on offer. Exciting times, though!
What's the relevance in this context?

Surely not just down to willy waving?!
