I know what you're implying, but I should point out that I didn't shop
around at all on that, and I know I could've bought it cheaper at at least
one retailer near by. However, I was going to the place to pick up a
motherboard for someone anyway, so I grabbed the hard disk for myself. I
know the wholesaler will be there in a year; I have my doubts about one
particular local retailer.
