You just mentioned part of the value Murray. The other significant part
is image, which may or may not be worthwhile for the company. But since
the cost is so small I think it is affordable. Besides, in practical terms
the domain name is definitely worth it if it avoids just one move. The cost
of the move, in terms of lost customers and notifying established customers,
will be far more.
