I think this product would need to be in the $10,000-$15,000 range to garner any real interest.
Would you buy one if it was $15K?
$15k would be my upper limit, sans the DRM...
a no DRM pre-production price of $12,500 or less I might bite.
DRM really bothers me. even if you had confirmed working units (right now) I doubt I would would pay more than 8k for it.
if you had working units (right now) no DRM I would probably be ordering a few units NOW at $12.5 any future sales would probably depend on what the delivered BFL Rigbox specs out at.
