So? Manufacturers switch to making a new product before it comes out.
Therefore the old product will climb in price.
Happens every time a new memory comes out.

I know, just ordered an 8GB set that was almost twice as much as the original 8GB I had in my desktop. But one of the explanations I've heard is that even though it's not already on the consumer level yet, most of the fabricators are already switching resources over. Don't know how accurate that is, but
Edit: Seeing ATMINSIDEs post, I guess it's pretty accurate

Hasn't the "mystery deal" been some sort of Seagate drive for a while now? Or is that what you were referring to?
The only thing that really caught my eye is that SS power supply.

Most HDD manufacturers distribute free cloning software for this purpose.
WD's free version of Acronis, for example: http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119

Keep the OS on the SSD, and your music and stuff on a regular HDD

Psh, he knows. He's the one that says "Hey FD, we just got a shipment of new PCs in, can you put our image on them" and then I'm stuck watching progress bars for the rest of the day
