One vendor (Charlie) offered a lower base equipment figure that was quoted in the discussion as about $11,500 for the unit (transcript text unclear on inclusions), while Tablet/Tab Electronics quoted a higher equipment price that in the transcript appears as about $98,740 (the larger figure appears to include additional items or different equipment scope).
