- Courier buyers also paid twice as much for their modem. While that's
- no excuse for difficulty in receiving product support, it does serve to
- underscore what folks have been telling us for years... you get what you
- pay for.

- Ford Motor Company is the parent organization behind both the Ford
- Festiva and the Lincoln Town Car, yet there is a WIDE disparity between
- performance and support of these two models. You get what you pay for.

- To some with the palate of a goat, a wafer thin $5 New York strip steak
- from Bonanza steakhouse, well done and drowning in A-1 sauce is a
- culinary delight. Others, like myself, prefer a fork-tender half-pound
- bacon-wrapped filet from Ruth's Chris. At Bonanza you serve yourself.
- At Ruth's Chris you're waited on hand & foot, including valet parking,
- but again, you get what you pay for.
