They're charging what the market will bear.  People don't buy
Cobalts for their power, support, or technical merits; they buy
them because they're "easy".  Doesn't mean that the end result is
correct, but it shows that paying money for something "easy" is
more important than learning "correct".

GUIs aren't inherently bad.  Given a choice between "easy" and
"correct", however, I prefer the latter -- doubly so when one
must pay more for "easy".

I don't seem to speak for the majority, however.
