That's still absolutely ridiculous. It's probably an out-dated page from when 1GB chips first hit the market.

Why would CAD make it that more expensive?

Canadian Dollars.

So obviously, it's price in CAD is going to be more than USD

Not CAD the software for architects and engineers. CAD = Canadian dollars. It should be abbreviated CDN.

Even just under 900dollars for that ram seems rediculous.

See my earlier post. RAM like that should not go for more than $350.

Hmm, that makes more sense, but don't computer parts get cheaper as time goes on?

not much pc 133 is made any more, thereforeit is more rare. That's why some pci graphics cards cost more than agp

No, it shouldn't. "CAD" is the accepted international abbreviation for Canadian Dollars. Just like "USD" for U.S. Dollars and "GBP" for Great Britain Pound.

I work in Finance. We send a couple billion around the world every few days. Whole lot of stuff that has "CAD", nothing that has "CDN".

Don't think of it as $1100, think of it as oral sex from 4 guys

Rather odd, I was born there and lived there for 20 years, and was always taught CDN was the proper abbr. for the term "Canadian." (in general, mind you - whatever the finance world wants to use is fine by me)

275 a BJ from guys is stupid.
I can get a full service from a girl for 250.

Oh Oh. I've said too much already.
DAMN!

I sure wish there was a way to go back and change that!
