The other day we couldn't find our USB-Serial adapter that we needed to download code. The simplest option seemed to be running to the Radioshaft on the corner and buying a new one, that could be kept better track of. So I go to the store and after making sure that it comes with drivers (as we don't have an easy way to connect to the internet) we find out that the frigging thing costs $40!!! $40 for a product that can't cost more than 25 cents to manufacture, just because they know I can't easily find it elsewhere.
Highlights (err, Lowlights?) explain it all.
