Re: "ever-declining prices" ????

everything goes up in price. not down.
That's fascinating, I guess I was imagining things when I paid $5,000 for a simple personal computer in 1986. Prices for hardware technology sure have skyrocketed since then.

And of course that is different. Most of that has moved from the US to another country so labor is cheaper.

But you can't tell me you pay more now for a loaf of bread then compared to now. You also can't say that milk was cheaper 5years ago as well.

Prices do go up. It's a matter of doing business.

Computers are different. They're able to cram more into a smaller area and cost less but also you get the prices cheaper when the companies start pulling a Wal-Mart and shipping production of the products to China and Mexico where labor is almost 80% cheaper there than here.
