I highly doubt it.  Those computer shows that come around here are a bunch
of B.S.  I went a few months ago (Blue Star sponsors them once a quarter, or
something) and all of the new equipment is of average price.  The claims of
cheap printers, laptops, etc. come from the fact that the equipment is 10
years old.

The cheapest place I know of in the Twin Cities for comp. equipment is
General Nano Systems right off University, on the U of M side of 280.
http://www.nanosys1.com.  There current price for 64MB of PC100 is $69.99.
