Why in the world would HP do a 2nd remake of the 15c? Oh, because it is still much loved and in demand. People pay whatever price is asked for a remake. I didn't hesitate a second when it became available. Wonderful machine, thanks to all who contributed to it.

Let's use the oldest incentive on earth - money. For example, an engineer friend in adjacent office thought nothing of paying some $700 US last year for a NIP 48GX. He's not even using it yet. Hoping to keep the old unit going for whatever time left. But - now he has a spare. If HP were to do a remake of the 48 with improvements they'd sell every unit for whatever price they put on it.
