Indeed, but I expect you probably pay a lot less. A Kilowatt hour here costs us 14p, or 26 cents.

For those looking to expand their storage though, it's cheap. Besides, you could just order more of the non-superspecial offer drives, they're still cheap at £55 each.

Indeed, there other threads for debating. These are deals for someone, whether or not it's a good deal for anyone else is coincidental. :)

A few for this weekend.

OCZ 4GB PC2 8000 (DDR2 1000) $57.99 after MIR and promo code: EMCBAACBJ

OCZ 4GB PC2 8500 (DDR2 1066) $69.99 after MIR and promo code: EMCBAACAK

SAPPHIRE 100225L Radeon HD 3870 512MB 256-bit GDDR4 $104.99 after MIR and promo code: EMCBAACBE

ASUS EN9600GT TOP/HTDI/512M GeForce 9600 GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 $79.99 after MIR and promo code: EMCBAACBF

There's other good deals to be had. You people sign up for the sale adds with the online vendors of your choice. :) That's where I get them.... :)

....gm

btw that DDR2 1000 is very tempting for someone that needs/wants 4GB of RAM. :D

The 8800GT, it's about 15% faster, and nowadays seemingly the same price.

It's interesting that when I google the Manufacturers part number from MicroCenter's add, I get this!

Rob,
No need to do that. I wasn't questioning you, I just ran it through google, which took me to Intel's page using the box number MC provided. I thought it was funny! LOL!!
