It's true, that only the facts count, when he/she bought the computer.
BUT: They didn't buy yet, so:
When you make a presentation show about the Falcon, it's possibly
to do a show, which makes the visitor say: 'That's it. That's the
computer _I_ really really _WANT_ to have (I actually MUST have!)' And
not just 'Well, okay it's nice computer so what ?'. It's PR that counts
today not the so called FACTS. Facts are what you make them seem to be !!

So Claudia would be perhaps the wrong person to sell a Falcon, but
she would be the right person to sell you anything. ;-)
