That's an interesting way of looking at it.  I guess some folks like that
"hands on approach".  Sort of like car drivers who prefer manual vs.
automatic shifting.
I got my client an online merchant account + the Authorizenet gateway for
$150 set up fee which is far cheaper than any terminal and merchant account
she could get through her bank.  I also got it for her in less than a week
which was far quicker than her bank could as well.  I'm sure there are
cheaper deals out there, but she was pretty pleased with the price, speed
and painless application process.
