Free cash flows suggest a higher valuation, so I lean towards option B.

Definitely agree with $25 million as the minimum, but $50 million feels too high.

I think the max could go higher than $35 million, maybe $50 million!

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between SPARC and x86 architectures when it comes to bootable USB images. I'll need to review that part carefully.

Okay, I think I've got a good strategy. I'll likely go with either creating a Menu Exclusion or an Item Exclusion for the Invoice Payments option. That should do the trick.
