Also, I'd wait to see if there is any improvement in cooling. The 92mm fan option is certainly nice though. There's always going to be something newer and cooler, so there's a good chance you'll always feel "gyp'ed" (which is btw, a pejorative akin to a racial slur, just an FYI as some might take offense to it).

The Alpha (fanless) has never been around the $50 level IIRC. I have two, and they both cost ~$30 and most retailers have them for under $40. :)
