Here I have attached the quote - minus our information and the 
specific reps (to protect everyone's identity).  But, I am very 
concerned that others have spent significantly less for similar 
systems.  Any input you might have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

MP

>>  Hello all,
>>
>>  We are currently going to purchase a new confocal, comparing the
>>  OlympusFV1000 spectral, Leica SP5, Nikon A1 and Zeiss 710. 
>>  As said in other posts,
>>  this is not a fair comparison since the FV1000 is approximately
>>  10 years
>>  old.  If this is the case, is it appropriate that the
>>  FV1000 spectral is
>>  being sold for $350,000?  I understand the Zeiss 710 since
>>  it is new
>>  technology and the Leica and Nikon as well.  Any comments -

>>  - still waiting?
