Each one of these costs more than the building itself

I do lab planning for a living and sometimes I like to play "How Many Houses Could This Instrument Buy?" with my coworkers. Usually it's something along the lines of 0.1 to 1 houses, but every once in a while we do a process development lab for some biotech firm, and they want to spring for one of those Satorious automated bioreactors. Those things cost "a whole block's worth of nice houses in a mid-major metro" money.

Have you thought about maybe adding windows and RGB lighting to them?

Does win XP and x-ray/uv/florescence count? That's already on there.
