Except that Sam Runco has a history of enhancing the performance of plasma displays, while the same can't be said for Band & Olufsen.
I don't have a problem with the existence of High End products. I'm just curious how Runco or B&O can make money off of these products, unless they are making them to order. If they stock units ready to ship, they have to be loosing money on dead inventory.
The US has lots of millionaires. Just look at the collection of pro-athletes and related jobs in that career field (coaches, owners, etc) as a start. This is pocket change.

Panasonic now sells the 103" For under $40,000 and yet the Runco version is still $100,000.
The B&O looks like a bargan next to Sam's product.
