If possible, I'd rather get something a little quicker than a 43p-150.  What
is the next step above the 43p/44p series, and what do they go for?  I'd be
willing to spend some more money, for a decent machine.  For comparison, my
other machines in the lab are an HP C3700, and a SunBlade 2000.   I just
don't want to spend thousands of $.  Up to $1k would be OK, if it's
worthwhile.

Also, if anyone has a machine reference for all the machines, 43p/44p and
newer, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
