Yup, that may be true. But, the same people who buy the old iron for
$25 pay $10000 to have it hauled to their facility, put a new $30000
control and drives on it, and then sell it for $250,000 to $500,000!
Because, there is just nothing made today that can handle the work
envelope and material removal rate under a million Dollars.
