....Wow.  I just went and looked at their prices.  Non-bleeding-edge 
video cards have dropped much further in price than I'd realized. 
GeForce 8600GT cards for under $50 after rebate, 8400GS for $28.  Even 
an SLI-capable 8800GS card for $120.  And here I thought $50 was still a 
realistic price for a 256MB 6600....  shows how often *I* buy new 
hardware, huh?

           It's not the years, it's the mileage.
