What's so funny about it? That it's rather expensive? Or that it cannot be gift wrapped?

I kinda like their Katana bartop design. Again too expensive for a BYOAC-er, but still.

That certainly looks nicer than the flimsy piece of cardboard with a 13" TV they were selling a year or so ago.

Maybe. It might also be somewhat a matter of clientele - ie: 'would these folks buy this?' . However, for that price, Mameroom should get in on it. I bet they could beat that price by a thousand or two and still make decent money. Of course, the 'legal games' bit is ever the clincher, all-round.
