Friendly reminder that not everyone lives in a developed country.

$60 (+shipping+taxes+customs+middlemen) can be really prohibitive in a non-developed country.

I think you'd have a bigger problem with the MacBook part of your equation there.
If a person has trouble w/ 60, maybe they got the macbook as a gift. If they got it as a gift, it's not too hard to ask for a 60 dollar thumb drive as well.
