the most disturbing thing is it's not really that expensive....
if you assume the most people spend $2000 on keyboards in their first year, it's STILL nothing compared to what people spend on their car (google $1300 car rims and see what comes up
).
how about cameras? i'm not even going to break that down; it's pretty common knowledge how much camera stuff actually costs.
of course, that doesn't mean my wallet doesn't get it's knees beat in by the wallet mafia
