why a Nitris DX when you can get a Mojo DX ?

I just put in a Mojo DX. When I first saw the Mojo DX, I didn't like it because it lacked all the I/O provided by the $15,000 Nitris DX. But with the advent of the new low cost A/D and D/A converters with embedded audio that are offered by AJA and Blackmagic, for about $1000 you can turn your Mojo DX into Nitris DX, and save $9000 in the process. Why AVID doesn't offer a second SDI or HD-SDI output on the Nitris DX, when it appears on every cheap A/D and D/A from Blackmagic and AJA is beyond me. So even with the Nitris DX, you still need an AJA HD5DA to get a second SDI output. And of course, you still need a Tripplite Keyspan USA-19X to get RS422 (thank goodness it's only $45).

So why would people buy a Nitris DX ?
