Michael, It is fairly likely that Buycomp will not honor their price for the monitor and cancel all the orders. I'll be bummed (and they'll lose a loyal customer who would've bought many of the other pieces of my system from them), but if it was a mistake and they provide a good explanation, then there's not much I can do. wired.com I agree it would be nice to get the bargain but I can't see how it is right for the company to lose 1/3 of a million dollars over an obvious mistake. If offered, I think the "at cost" proposition is fair. B.T.W. I wouldn't write them off over this. Their non-mistake prices are very good. Dave
