Larry,

I don't understand why he wouldn't spend the lousy $1800 to help prevent fraud in his restaurant which probably costs him a ton more. Heck, if he needs three of those machines, he's probably doing $10K in revenue a day, so the cards would cost him a few hours of revenue.

And CC fraud in restaurants is significant. Of the restaurant owners I know, they all have it... some continuously. There are so many ways to get your number its hard to imagine.

For me, it's ALWAYS cash at a restaurant... and prefer exact change. Never a CC.
