Steve,
I'm going to let Jon and Matt do the marketing. I was
just the guinea pig ( it takes practice to squeal like
one).
Separation from the computer, easier hookup are
advantages for me. It is not necessarily much less
expensive.
Once we got past the parallel card   problem it came up
rather easily.

p.s. Jon can give you prices, transfer rates, etc.
