I have always felt Trimble over-priced their product.

I always felt the opposite to Bryan Taylor with respect to product price. The support costs are very hefty for the green box...

How dare you disagree with me.

But yes Leica aint cheap - it seemed like Trimble has always been more expensive.

Not only is this stuff extremely expensive, 10 years down the road it's "No longer supported". A $20k instrument over that ten years is $2k/year or a $1 for every possible working hour whether you use it or not.
