If they would throw 640MB of ram on this puppy for under $100, I would buy one

I would be more interested if they would just drop the bloody price of the current 8xxx series cards. It feels like Nvidia is just sapping as much money as they can from us, until they get real competition against all their cards (the HD 2900xt is just not enough, especially for its price).

But this is great for the media center group!

It's a good card for HTPC. Specially if it has passive cooling.
