Finally broke down and paid $400 for some Dom GT's. Now I'm happy. But my wallet still won't talk to me.

Edit: Sorry for the poor sense of humor. Sometimes I forget that Marine humor doesn't always work in the real world. Honestly I can't afford the top of the line Corsair's. Plus I think the premium is rediculous for the name. Good memory, crappy price.

Extrapolate that out now to DDR3 or 5 and what we're paying for memory is dirt cheap 
20MB HDD - $400.

That is crazy expensive, but neither here nor there. I thank and feel sorry for you pioneers of the PC market. Shit was truly outrageous back then.
