If you consider his efforts to get it done it's cheap.

If you pay him $3 an hour excluding hardware costs,
then you would need to pay more than what he asks, i'm sure of that.

Then you are just as strong as the PC at any spot in the house. In fact you can
do that up to 150 meter distance. You can show up wireless in a tournament
