NT terminals cost too much By John Cox Network World, 6/22/98 ................snip... "We could multiply by 10 times the number of [Windows-based terminals] we sell if we were at the right price point," Botti said. ===========================snip It's going to be a very tough market to crack without a distinct price advantage," said Keith Gray, senior geophysical consultant with Amoco Corp.'s exploration and product technology group. "I'm going to be buying PCs unless there is a compelling price differential." ===========================snip It's unclear how long the vendors will be able to maintain their current prices, especially as two major companies, Motorola in the U.S. and Acorn Group in Britain, have announced Windows-based terminal reference designs that would cost between $70 and $110 for manufacturers to build. nwfusion.com
