Tipping Point

Earlier I had posted how I was eager to play Prince of Persia. So I bought a new computer system which would be worth around 60 k. I got a AMD quad core 2.5 GHZ,4 GB Ram,500 GB hard disk rig. But most important thing is my graphics card 512 MB ATI Radeon 4870 which was costing whopping 19 k when I bought and my benq 22 inch LCD monitor. I built this solid gaming rig because I wanted to play games and  PoP in particular.

I have completed Prince of Persia in last two nights.After completing it I realized that decision tipping thing for me to buy a new computer (spending 60k) lasted  for two nights only . I find it strange that although I wanted to play games , I did not  seriously consider buying a  new one until PoP came out . I have heard of tipping point in consumer's buying decision , but never consciously thought about it until today.

I think I had read somewhere how buying stuff although seems like a logical and rational decision,but in reality is irrational and emotional one.
