Saskboy's Abandoned Stuff: The Inexpensive Computer Comes With Expensive Shipping Option Only
When I read about the $9 computer on Crash Bang Labs’ Facebook page, I was ready to help kick start that CHIP. But I got to the payment screen when the shipping amount came up. How much could it cost I’d thought to ship a computer smaller than a couple
