Doh! My 2005FPW cost me $359 + tax back in August 05. They must be pretty cheap now. Damn technology.
Same for my upgrade in Jan/Early Feb of this year. One month later and I could've nearly gotten an Opty 165 for the same price I paid for my 146. Then the 7900GT comes out and uber pwnz my 7800GT I just paid $270 or so for (and I threw away the box, so no step up for a reasonable fee).
I just paid $212 for a Razr V3c (WITH a 2yr contract too! need to send out the $100 rebate, but 3 months is a pretty long wait for such a large amount) which is free for most providers but in a non-metro area I guess that's what you got to pay.
