Just cuz you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.

Seriously though, wouldn't this be a case of the market setting the price? If no one bought the cards @ $500 per, prices would've gone down. I'm all for lower prices but if people are willing to pay....

Where are the suits against Apple for having ZERO competition on their hardware?

Yeah, all that would need to of been done for the 8800 series would of been to boycott it for the first week, maybe two tops. Then i bet the prices would of dropped a lot!! But, people aren't very patient so that will never happen. To bad though.
