Sorry I didn't intend on sounding so austere, I just grabbed your message out of this thread. I just thought that I would through my two cents in. I know that they are not worth much, yet. <g> But, know that you mention it I have read this entire thread. >>Tip of the month: how to save money when buying memory? 🙂 It will always be talk between users: "hey Ana, I have got one 16MB for $30 from blah, blah, blah" or "got a 1.05 gig HD for $985!" (and the last is true :)<<ana Yes, I do think this will create more traffic. >>I can't see the wrong side of a HD/Tape/MO/Memory/Tablets/misc.Software/etc. list in the harware section of the forum<<ana I don't have a problem with such a list, but I think Evan pretty much summed up the prospects of such a list in his forum message #80020. >>Post a message requesting prices on something, and have the responses sent by private e-mail.<< Greg Pyros I also think that keeping the price responses limited to e-mail is a good policy. There always exceptions to every rule, but in general wouldn't this be a good idea. >>I have bought my Kodak ColorEase from a dealer that can support me (or that's what I think <g>) when I need it because I have spend $7,000 in the damn thing. But If I need to buy Painter I will buy it throught the discount channel BECAUSE any dealer will give me support in a program that cost $170<<ana I agree completely. I purchased items like AG-7750, Ill-Pro and 3DS from dealers that could and would offer support, but I purchased items like mem., hds, DOS, Picture Publisher ……. at discount prices. And no, you don't have the poorest english in the world. If I understand your messages # 80091 & #80415 correctly I think we agree on most of these issues. I happen to have an UltraStor 34f VLB FSCSI-2, a Diamond Viper VLB, a 486-66 DX2 cpu and a Turtle Beach Multisound sound card for sale, any bidders <g> (e-mail of course).
