Sandisk Cruzer's are recognized as the industry's best consumer USB drive.

Staples is selling them at $6/GB this week.

Oh, Staples usually has some nice deals. I picked up a 500GB external hard drive for $99 bucks last week. It's already half full. :)

For the exact same reasons, I've told myself never, ever to look at my NewEgg order history. Everytime I do, I get pissed because two months after I build and deploy a server, I could build an identical one for about 60% of the price. :( I suppose that's a very good problem to have, but it still irks me seeing RAM I paid $200 for selling for $65.

At least it wasn't about 5 years ago. 256mb for over $100 :p You were cool if you had one back then.

I've had a 128MB flash drive for years now, so long that it's losing sectors.
