Amazing what some judicious upscale pretentiousness can do in a

That really isn't true with most Festool items.
Even though I think Systainers are overpriced, every Festool _tool_
I've tried really has been far above the competition. ...
You notice I didn't say the tool wasn't a good tool...
I _still_ think they're overpriced, though, and that their marketing
plays into the elitist club thing. W/ sufficient markup on individual
tools, they don't need the tremendous volume. Great for them if they
can continue to make it work.
