The MH H100, like the other MH's are quoted without storage. Add 100 selections on RAID @ 1GB/selection is a $10k-$15K aspect. Add Backup juke storage, another $6K minimum. UPS's, switchers, billing system, ... and 150 analog STBs, install labor, ... the cost climbs a lot. Perhaps they made the numbers work out, but it would be very tight. 100 VCRs (the current ONCO system) would run about $15K today (aggregate cost of $100/room of the $400 quoted) .... so it is a bit of a mystery of what this cheaper system REALLY is. The announcement sounded like a home-brew digital version direct from ONCO's Engineering group (OCV). Wouldn't you think CCUR would announce too if it was them in the system?
