Not the market, at least not the market I have access to.  2/3 of the
"software" in the biggest computer store in town is in a "gated
community" where under-20-year-olds are (theoretically) not admitted.
_Plenty_ of Bot Fridays to be had---and for only 5000--10000 yen each.

The problem with the market is not the failures---it's the successes.
