Mani - Re: "My estimate of $3.00 which is on the high side, is for a slightly bigger fan and sink."

Oh yeah?

A new part number is required.

A new VENDOR for that part is required.

A new STOCK location is required.

New STOCKING INVENTORY is required.

New BIDS and PURCHASE ORDERS must be written, authorized and placed.

New INSPECIONS/QUALIFICATIONS for the part and vendor are required.

New PROCEDURES and DOCUMENTATION for the PART, INSTALLATION, etc will be required.

You need to look at the BIG MANUFACTURING PICTURE !

Of course, if Ali Chen decides he's gonna sell K7 boxes - he can just run down to the hardware store and buy a big fan and stick it in the box and his customer won't notice the difference.

But the NASDAQ stock exchange and Bank Of America are probably not going to buy from Ali.
