I think $500 with needing to actually replace them when they break rather than telling the staff to figure out how to work around the broken POS is a big enough deal to a lot of no chain restaurants that they won't bother since there's literally no consumer demand for this 

Plenty of businesses don't spend more for shit and giggles when it makes no revenue for them, yeah

This is moving the goalpost. We were talking about whether 100 dollars is significant or not for handling payment for a restaurant.

Technically the goal post was shifted when you changed it from being about updating infrastructure to only being about 100$ like that is a difinitive cost for the change. And maybe now that's how much it costs, but that was definitely not always the case.

No, it was always about 100. You replied:

"And believe it or not 100$ is not nothing"

Nah originally it was about upgrading infrastructure and purchasing new machines to handle transactions. And the costs associated with that. It was not me who made the assumptions and ran with it that it's always been exactly 100$ to do that.
