Not all prices are going up

At least one popular item seems to be dropping in price at a remarkable rate.  I just saw this advertised by ComputerGeeks.

PNY Attaché 8GB High-Speed USB 2.0 Flash Drive w/ReadyBoost   $28.99

That’s insane.  It wasn’t 6 months ago that you could hardly find an off-brand, no-name 1GB flash drive for that price.

If only computer prices fell that fast.  They’re coming down quickly, but if they followed the same pricing curve that flash drives have followed we’d be offered free laptops for subscribing to PC Magazine.  (Well, I can dream, can’t I?)
