This is probably in response to their and ATI/AMD's price fixing :)
Well, we win no matter what. Call me when the 9800GX2 gets down to around $200 :)

my Video Card dropped over $200 since when I bought it in January.

yeah... stuff like that's annoying. I remember paying over 200 bucks for 2 gigs of ddr ram... and then a year later paying under 50 bucks for the same kit.

That's technology. You know when you buy something it's gonna be worthless in 6 months. Comes with the territory.
