bilow: This gives the cheapest (128MB) RDRAM system at $2442.65. Change the RDRAM to 256MB, you get $3226.65. Once again wrong wrong wrong. I got price quote for 128 MB of RDRAM from Infineon for $585 today not $780 as you seem to believe. Every week the so called price difference between SDRAM and RDRAM shrinks futher. Keep up your shorting. I start adding more to my RMBS collection below $300. I am collecting cash from decaying value of covered calls on RMBS to buy more. I just love you man. john

Carl, Intel Pentium III 700MHz FSB SSE w/Heatsink & AAVID Cooling Fan, 128MB RDRAM Intel-Based-Only Non-ECC(PC-800), IBM Deskstar 22GXP 22.0GB HD 9.0ms seek time, 7200RPM, Ultra66, Nvidia GeForce256 w/32MB DDR TV-Out 4X AGP, KoolMaxx Video Cooling System $46.00, Aliencare Standard 1-Year Priority Service w/3-Year Limited Manufacturers Warranty (No-Charge), Scheduled pick-up by customer (No-Charge) Hit the calculate price. This gives the cheapest (128MB) RDRAM system at $2442.65. Change the RDRAM to 256MB, you get $3226.65. You are definitely getting scammed, my friend. Dell sells their B series system equivalent to what you've spec'ed above with a monitor and CD-ROM drive for $1989 (http://commerce.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.asp?order_code=59MC24B&customer_id=04&keycode=6W300). And they'll deliver it right to your door. And you can get support and service on THIS planet (who wants Aliens taking care of their system anyway <G>). Dell still charges $680 for upgrading to 256M RDRAM, but as Jdassoc pointed out, you can buy it cheaper in the aftermarket. Just thought you might want to be accurate in your price quotes. Dave
