I don't know, around $1400.00 I guess, because I bought some additional
stuff and had two older SATAs from before.

I bought a 50 inch HDTV from Amazon today. A Sammy and I brought to
attention the problems with the Pannys that CNET and others are talking
about currently regarding black levels dimming over a short time.
