Alot of those sports players don't make all that much cash when you look at the second and third stringers. I've heard of guys having trouble buying $500 laptops and the like. Not all of them have the multi-million dollar contracts =)

Methinks some of these arcadepcs were promotional items...

I can't think of many people who would turn down a freebie in exchange for some free marketing.

Depends on the sport. Roughly 5 years ago the MLB minimum was 175k per year...avg was 1.2mil per year.  WNBA players by contrast are lucky to make 60-70k.

if they can't buy a $500 laptop its because they are haphazardly wasting their money.   As mentioned, the MLB minimum salary is around $200k.... not exactly "roughing it"
