I called Haas Thursday about upgrading the memory on my mini from 1 to 16mb. I thought it was a total rip off that it was going to cost, what I thought, $995.00, but what can you do.
Apparently, they were too busy to deal with me, so they told me they would contact me today. Well, they never did call, but when I got back out to my shop, I get a fax in for the upgrade.
Here it is:
16 Megabyte upgrade: $995.00
Main Processor Board, 16MB with math Co-Processor: $2250.00*
App. 2 hours labor at $105.00 per hour: $210.00
Travel Charge: $150.00
*You will receive full credit, in the amount of $2250.00 for this part after Haas receives the old 1MB processor back in good working condition.
Wow, what a deal.
I guess the $995.00 that I thought was outrageous was way too little money for them.
I guess it's going to cost me $3605.00 up front, then when they get to it, I get $2250.00 back, which brings the total bill to $1355.00.
I wonder if I could just trade the damn thing in on a new VF2? But then again, they probably wouldn't give me anything for mine, even though it's only 2 1/2 years old.
