We don't need them to make a new one. We need them to finish making all the other ones.

You forgot one other feature....it will perform like sh*t after you actually get it. :roll:
2500 = over priced
1000 = over priced
500 = WTF priced
With the build and pricing scheme a new MPC is in no way attractive.
They are already cutting too many corners with the current line, trying to build something more elaborate would just be a higher priced POS.
