$10 million dollars? Converting from dollars squared, that's only about $3,162.28 in regular dollars.

So Shields cost $200K apiece? That's kinda expensive, this early in the game.

SQL Server masts only cost $2 million and do roughly the same job. However, they have a tendency to lock up if too many users use them at once
