Not that anyone cares :p but theres an article on CNET about the 20 buck 1GB RAM (which many of you know about)


In contrast, the Internet has allowed consumers to broadcast pricing glitches far and wide through online message boards such as those on FatWallet.com and AnandTech. By the time an online store can correct an error, it may already be overwhelmed with orders.

Amazon won't honor the orders though.

Check it

You're right. I guess the number seemed more than "a few" because everyone was arguing with them about it. ;)

If a company advertises something for a certain amount, that company should honor the quote, even if it was a mistake.

hehe no I only think 15 for the whole order

I didn't see the deal :( but I would be happy with my 15 bucks. GO buy a couple of books. Reading is good.

if they did, amazon dot com will lose even more money and they will comprimise looking out for the corporation's well being. it's not going to happen.
