5speed, thanks for posting this price quote. Makes a decrease by about $40 in 10 days or so!! Does anyone of you have any idea what it may cost WDC to produce such a drive? What do you folks think a big computer shop/reseller pays for these drives? How big a gross margin do they ususally have? 20% (only a guess)? Less? And can WDC possibly still be profitable selling their latest technology for $200 to the reseller?

Please anybody keep watching this prices occasionally and quickly post the quotes.

Thank you so much, Thomas
