Jon,


Last year I got stuck with a large deposit for ordered goods when the store went bankrupt. The courts seem to be telling the public to stuff it, while the lawyers involved made something over $150,000 on the deal. Replacing that deposit sure has gotten in the way of me buying a turbine.

The point is that you are absolutely correct, it IS about the money. However, I very strongly suspect that it is the group of lawyers and not the manufacturers who are pushing this.
