Well, one thing the gotta-have-it-now people aren't offering is payment
commensurate with the delivery schedule. If you have enough cash, you
can get the performance, quality, and delivery you want. But somehow,
there aren't many hams willing to spend $100K for a state of the art
whatever, so they have to wait til there's cumulative investment, either
sweat equity from the inventor, or pre-orders, etc.
