I dunno. 3,000 machines does not seem like a lot to me. JohnM says they have done just fine in security for the past 7 years, but I wonder if those numbers of segway patrollers would impress him as just fine also.

Seems there are frequently double standards as to what qualifies as good performance for some machines, and those standards are not the same for others.

I would have guessed at far more than 3000 T3s on the market. I just do not know how many are there, which is why I asked.
