 I guess now, you all want cheap (and, no, I don't mean "inexpensive").

one factor is that reasonable TV panels are so cheap. I often see people
wanting to kit out houses with 5 or more TVs. They balk at that many $2-300
PC's but at $50 pis seems cheap. And yes the costs may vary widely
depending where you live, but the pi is usually pretty cost effective no
matter where you live.
