 you won't see much acceptance of this format. Not enough people will be
 willing to spend that much for 3D. Maybe they "ought" but they won't.
 Until there is the potential for deep market penetration, capitalists
 won't be interested. I'm not say profits can't be made now, just the
 potential profits are too small and the real risks too great. As for
 giving 3D a bad name, almost no marketeers care about that at all.
 They're in it for the money, not the art or humanity. That's almost like
 saying porno gives sex a bad name, or cancer gives tobacco a bad name.
 Don't matter at all. Yeah, I know, this means one of us will have to
 take the risk, prove the concept, and then get ripped off by some mega
 corporation. It's a dang shame too. >>

I haven't checked in a while but, VREX was selling their 3-D system on EBAY. 
I paid $35 including shipping in February 1998. This came from VREX not an 
individual and not one that was repaired.
