$2,500?!

Insane. Totally insane.

The irony of it is that in the Star Trek universe, mankind is supposed to have long since outgrown the need for money.

I honestly don't believe that. Think about it. Power is derived from control of resources and access to knowledge. Preventing access to free energy technology would keep the current power structure firmly in place. If you were to think that the same method of keeping certain knowledge secret in order to maintain control wasn't heavily employed throughout human history, you'd be naive.

But hey, that's just my opinion.

I'd love it. But it is tooo expensive.. So I won't buy it.

Some can afford it though, more power to them.
