Well, it is kinda interesting to ponder how much better a $5000/hr
prostitute is than a $1000/hr or $500/hr prostitute is.
Unless he's paying for *really* *weird* kink, there comes a point
where a woman just doesn't get any more beautiful, no matter how
much you pay her.
I think it boils down to:
I'm so rich that I can afford to pay $5000 for an hour with a
girl, and because I'm paying so much, she must be Great!!
Back to computers:
We're such a successful company, we can afford to buy Tier 1 kit,
and send all that money to MSFT. And because we do, we *must*
be getting good stuff.
(If that is, actually, an actual upper-management though process.)
