i was going to say my desktop, but i realized that loss in value means it's not worth so much now, and is made of so many components (do I count my tower and monitor together or separate?). thus, likely my TV (around $650), or music stuff (my pedal board is made of a lot of separate components, and totals around $1500…

i wouldn't worry about it honestly. Most people are forgiving for such a thing (although I don't know what field you are in). I do like 4 different things that regard me setting my own rates (freelance writing, guitar lessons, custom effects pedals, and sound installation consultation), and sometimes I go at a 'loss',…

depending on what you're doing, low balling for a short period of time can be a great way to build a customer base.

I've had my desktop for about 2.5 years at this point. I've only had this phone for 6 months, but had the one before for 2.5 years. I'm on a bit of a tablet spree, with a new one every 3 months, but I think I've settled down to the final choice (sony xperia tablet). I haven't bought a laptop for 4 years, although I…

The $500 brick sized packages are the increment, not the cost.

Hack it inside a mechanical keyboard.
