This brings to mind a question -- is there a web site that has historical 
data on computer-related prices?  Someone, somewhere, should go to a 
library and find all the old magazines and construct a long month-by-month 
record of best prices for a few key items.  I know that people love to 
talk about paying $X for N MB of {HDD,RAM} in 19[89]\d.
