LCD Price Fixing?

bilsaysthis asks: "Bill Kearney poses a really interesting question, one which I've been puzzled by for a while too: 'What's with prices on LCD displays? On one hand a laptop can be had with UXGA resolution display for $1000. Try buying that display alone and you'll find it's also around $1000. Then there's how much they're gouging for the same resolution in an LCD television.'" Sadly enough, as much as I want one of these for my wall, the market is willing to bear these prices. How long will it be before this hardware becomes affordable?

My Corolla's headlights dim to the beat of the music, and I'm proud.

So there. I think I'll add a type-R sticker to the back and some speed holes next week so it'll go faster.

Some of us just want a good stereo in a low-cost, tight package. The Metro would definitely provide that with some upgrades, just like my Corolla did for me.
