I like that.  I was originally thinking of having the system display a range of
units with prices from economy to "ultra."  You may be right -- let the client
can select a budget and display systems at or below the budget.  I'll run that
by my staff.

That part is easy -- just a bit of typing.  I've been slowly building FAQ
descriptions of these elements anyway.

I already tried that.  Unfortunately, SF doesn't handle "upsell" the way I want
it.  The new cart system does it similar to Amazon.  Upsell operates
independently of the Selection Guides, displaying a few related items once the
client hits "View Cart" or "Buy Now".

Thanks for the feedback.
