Nope, manufacturers rarely drop prices on "high end" gear for fear
of alienating their suckers (customers), however equivalent,
perhaps even better ones will be cheaper, and some others will be
even dearer to capture the market that always insists anything more
expensive must be better. There's a lot more profit to be made from
those people after all.

Who said anything about manufacturers lowering prices,

Fair enough, today's most expensive converters will be next to worthless
on the second hand market in 15 years. Or perhaps there will be a
collectors market for them. You just never know what suckers will collect.
