Up front capital invested can range from as low as $500 for a small, shallow pond aeration system to as much as $8,000 or more for a larger system or a solar aerator.Operating cost is dependent on the number of amps needed to power an electric motor multiplied by the electricity cost in your area.ome electric aerators might run for 2-3 years without any major issues and others might run 5-7 years or longer. The table below is based on a set of assumptions that is fairly representative of actual costs for a 1 to 2 acre pond or small lake.
Surface Hub costs less than half that, and is in essence a collaborative center in a box. Costs for a conference room that would accommodate the lower-end unit are about $6,500 to $27,000, again not including furniture, installation, service, and ongoing management costs, so a similar savings can be had there as well.
At a minimum, the Surface Pro should add about $320 to the Surface RT's BOM. The primary culprit for this increase would be the Intel Core i5 processor that costs about $200 more than the Tegra 3. OEMs would also have to pay a license fee of about $60-$100 for each x86 Windows 8 tablet.
