SDRAM UP, DDR DOWN

Last week we saw about a 10 to 15% price increase in PC100 and PC133 RAM.  It has been prices extremely low for several months and the correction was way overdue.  However, DDR RAM took a turn in the opposite direction.  It has been making a gradual downward turn in price.  It is expected to continue as the old SDRAM is phased out and the newer DDR SDRAM continues to increase in popularity. 

NEW PRODUCTS

The V21 booksize MATX case we have carried for a long time has been phased out.  It is being replaced with a newer version.  The V30 is available in both beige and black.  It has a 200W P4 power supply and the front USB remains.  This small footprint case is becoming extremely popular in situations where space is limited. 

 

We now stock the neon light bar for the gamer cases as well as the front audio connectors and the front firewire connectors.  This case is work of art when the neon light is installed and the fans are converted to the 3 color LED fans.

 

It appears that all CDRW’s are moving to a minimum of 40X burn speed and many are only available at 48X. Considering the speed, the prices for these high speed burners are extremely economical.  Floppy drives are almost uneccsary and are becoming optional on the latest Jetbook laptops.

 

Lastly, Norton Antivirus and Systemworks are now only available in the 2003 versions.  Please note the price reduction for CTL monitors.

WHAT DO WE SELL?

Once again I need to reiterate that we do not publish everything we sell.  If we did, we would need a team of people to maintain pricing and other info.  We list only the most common products.  Many times I have people ask me if we can get something and they are surprised that we can.  The most common items are networking products.  We have access to high end products such as Cisco, Nortel, 3Com, HP, Dlink, Intel, Linksys, Xircom, Lucent, Orinoco, Avaya, SMC and others.  If you don’t see what you want on the pricelist just call us.
