                i like it when you rant like that.  I imagine you raising a finger coated with clay and saying:  "that 
that is the bureaucrat's forte."

                    padre, it's infalted prices, it's always inflated prices. Values are 
                
                tripled and quadrupled for dramatic police and court purposes. When they say that certain drugs had a 'street value' of such and such, we decided that the street had to be in the city where marijuana cost the most in the whole USA, or the cocaine, or whatever. Then, that the drug dealers 
  cut' it ten times with garden cuttings and sugar crystals. Exaggeration, the bureaucrats' forte.

                    I think your calculations are better than theirs....but I've heard, on 
                
                "Tech TV" that a lot of disk drives can be added to one computer.  Probably, when they say "one computer" they are including all the cd-roms that were nearby or one BIG disk drive perhaps....
