What can you get for $250
On another thread or two, involving the construction of the PDRacer, I made a comment that I was building two boats for less than the price of an iPod.
Then I discovered that the iPod Nano was pretty much the price of one boat ($250.00)
So I started thinking, (then my ears started to bleed), what else can one get for $250.00?
A PDRacer
Three months worth of Broadband Internet
An iPod Nano
A Sydney Harbour Bridge Walk
Half a ticket to the Rolling Stones Concert
......
So what else could I have wasted my money on instead of an 8 foot high tech racing boat??
Cheers,
P

8 foot high :eek: :eek:
I thought the sides were only about 18" high on those boats
Seriously though, they look like a good project, I wonder if our scouts might be interested.
So what sorta ply did you use BM.

You are being ripped off if you are paying $83/month for broadband; I get mine for $49.95 with unlimited downloads and no minimum period from Eftel.
