BOING
Damn - Newegg, eWiz, Tiger Direct, etc all have them for $209ish.
Considering the store near me charges half the sales tax (3.5%) and that there is no shipping, I'll have to keep myself occupied at lunch time to avoid buying one.

That has to be the biggest problem... Not only burdening the consumer with knowing which upgrade path will work, etc... But looking semi out of touch with so many 'parallel' lines. |
