$300 for a Radeon 7000?

by Anand Lal Shimpi on March 4, 2004 5:02 PM EST


I've got this friend, we call him Manny, and while he's at work he sends me random messages all the time. Usually he'll link me to hilarious threads in Off Topic and sometimes he'll send me IMs that will make me hate myself for sitting in front of people in class. Today he sends me this: http://www.sun.com/desktop/products/graphics/xvr100/.

It's a link to a PCI video card upgrade for Sun Blade and Sunfire systems. Upon further inspection you'll note that it is a Radeon 7000, click on the Price & Buy link and you'll get a nice $295 :)

I found that funny, so I thought I'd share.

I'm dead tired, going to try this napping thing before class this evening. I've still got more project stuff to work on before I leave tomorrow morning so I better make that nap short. Note that I've been promising myself a nap all day, but something always seems to interrupt it. They really need to switch around when naptimes occur; the whole forcing kids to nap when they don't want to in elementary school but not offering enough sleep opportunities later on in life is just absurd.

As usual, I've got more to say and I'll speak it later. Take care :)
