Thanks For the Memory

[urgeok2]

Has anyone bought memory for anything lately ?

thy're practically giving the stuff away !

I bought 3 4 gig Micro SD's the other day .. 16$ each
and an 8 gig PSP memory - for $65 !! i remember when the 4gig psp memory stick was about $170 ... way less than a year ago.

if i had hunted around i'm sure i could have gotten it cheaper too - that was the 1st place i looked.

My camera uses those ProDuo sticks... I got a 2 gig for $50 less than a year ago and can get the same damn card for around $20 now. Same access speeds and everything!

Sometimes they have such low speeds they're almost useless.

not memory but a 500 gig hard drive for $99.

I remember spending a couple of hundred bucks for something like 16 mb of memory about 10 years ago

For an extra $50 you could have got an extra teragig at Tiger Direct. 1.5 TG $150.

I'm thinking the 500 gig is more than enough.


I could buy a lot of beer with that $50

You can never have a big enough drive.
