Ok, but let's be specific. Who has spent >$200 for a

work/profit...for umm, pleasure (?). I for one
qualify. oi
Not recently, but did so early and often, like a Chicago voter. :-D
Biggest thing I bought expense wise was a Xerox Star for about $3K.
Wife still brings it up whenever I complain she wasted money on yet
another pair of brand new shoes. (She complains that they're not comfy,
I ask her why did she buy uncomfortable shoes, and off we go repeat the
Star discussion.) :-)
