We've done this before, but there are a number of people on this list who
have extravagant Home Cinema setups (myself included), where in percentage
terms the Pronto Pro's cost is hardly extravagant.

I won't buy one on principal at the current price though as you are looking
at an extra £500 for a bit more memory and a poor quality colour screen.

Who knows, if we all vote with our feet, maybe the price will come
down.....

Here's hoping.

Tim.
