I dont buy online after having problem ( except for non-electronic product)

http://www.microbytes.com/product_in...53313eea042165 2Gb
http://www.microbytes.com/product_in...53313eea042165 1Gb

If I have a problem I go back to the store, and received a new one right away (for the first years of purchased) no need to wait. I can pay more its not a problem for me

Both links you sent are for 2GB version, if you meant this one the price looks not to bad if you don't have to pay shipping.

I just can't justify 3x the cost for shipping to get it two days earlier--yes, it's fun, but expensive!

I bought 1720 USD worth of hardware and paid 80 USD for overnight. It wasn't a bad deal at the time considering how much I was already spending.

I had the stuff in about 24 hours, it was impressive.

Ah well, if you're shelling out that much for the HW I guess it makes more sense. When I buy a $100 GPU though, the cost of overnight doesn't make much sense.

Congrat's t_ski. That is some impressive hardware in action. Does you network ever settle down with all the continuous downloading/uploading of WU's?

After all these times of seeing the thread about pie and never knowing what it was about, to finally actually having a share is pretty cool!
