Products should be evaluated on absolute terms regardless of price and then
it's up to the buyer to decide if the product is a good value or not.  Most
of these magazine judge things on original price, not long term value so
their judgment is meaningless in this regard.

I suppose CDI would have rated the Leica M3 and SL/2 as poor value along
with the Mercedes 300E and all the other great products that had a high
initial cost but which proved to be tremendous investments.
