    I think he did say that was the total cost he paid for three different systems total, not one. Still pretty pricey, but just thought I'd offer the clarification.

    Buy a plane ticket to Japan and ask Yoshida for an invite in person. It's only around $900.

    Can't speak Japanese? Hire a private interpreter for ~$200 for the first hour and ~$50 for each additional hour.

    As long as you're down there for a week, you can stay at the lovely Shibuya Granbell Hotel for six nights at ~$1500 in a premier double. (What kind of plebeian settles for a single?)

    Of course, you should treat our favorite producer and director to a coffee while you solicit alpha access. I don't know anything about coffee shops and cafes in Tokyo, so play it safe and go to a Starbucks. $10 for both of you (add 5 for the interpreter).

    Putting aside another $500 for food, local travel, tipping, impulse purchases and other expenditures, you're looking at $3110 alpha price tag.

    In order to get the most out of the alpha, you could buy a 60" Samsung LED Smart HDTV and a self-built PC that can run Crysis on max settings at 1900x1200--no, I'm not going computer shopping for you.

    Oh look. That's just over $7000. Well, what do you know.

    I think i spent about 1300 myself, minus OS sense I already had it from a previous build. I say if you got money to just burn up mid-as-well do crazy stuff like this. Also don't forget to pickup some legendary gear/weapons off diablo III while your at it.

    Oh also I don't know if you care, but you can easily discern your license plate from the reflection in the picture.

    I thought this thread was about inventory.

    I think my desktop upgrade that I did recently cost me under $300 ~_~;, took a few months to gather the parts but I hawked newegg constantly and waited for sales :x

    New motherboard (old one had a wonky connection that caused BSODs...yay!)
    New RAM - only 8GB but that's all I really need, and there's room to add more down the line.
    Graphics card on discount - Radeon HD5770, was like $100 with sale + mail-in rebate (yay for sales!)
    Windows 7 64bit OEM ver.... took me a long time before I willingly upgraded from xp ; ;

    Spending $7k is an absolute waste, you can build a sweet unit for much much less.

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means
