I suppose it was my idea to discontinue the R8B? There was not enough
market, you fool.

I think what happened was that they pretty much sold one to everybody
who wanted one over the series' extremely long run.

As I recall it Drakes explanation of the discontinuation it wasn't so much the
lack of demand but other issues.

I'll have to contact Bill Frost and ask him about that.

I'll bet I'm right about the cost of producing the R8B.

As I recall it, you are. It wasn't so much an issue of demand it was something to do
with the availability of components currently being used, re-design costs because of
that unavailability, and just the overall cost of building them.

The market was there, just witness the still high price an R8B brings.
