Sorry Henri. I think by "in Australia" you are possibly assuming Sydney is Australia.
I live in the next state (I guess equivalent to next Province), 1000km from Sydney.
But point taken, and hourly costs are important in comparison.
My point was really that the manufacturer has a very desirable product, hampered by an eye watering purchase price. If they can get a busines model that allows a reduction in price, they would have a run away best seller.
