Yeah... this is nice if you have $50 to spend.  Unfortunately, I'm a
poor college student... I currently have < $100 to my name [most of it
in coin rolls I collected from my spare-change repository] and about $200
in bills sitting on my desk in front of me...

My machine-upgrade plans are in progess, but are being hampered by moving
and housing costs in Berkeley...  which are pretty bad.

I'm just saying that all people don't have [and can't necessarily get] more
resources immediately... But, we do what we can, eh?  There are still
options.
