The Initial Impressions Are In

Now that pricing has had some time to sink in, people are expressing their feelings. Here are some real quotes:

"$500 is just too much for that for most people who also have to eat and pay rent."
- Richard Lawler


"this is pretty much a toy for the laptop warriors"
- Hungry Antelope


"Ridiculously expensive for such a simple device."
- poopoo


"Is it just me, or are these things ridiculously priced?"
- Anon

None of these quotes are about the arc. They're from four years ago. Which doesn't prove anything if you regard the 64 itself as overly expensive.
