Check out www.pricewatch.com. They have a search engine which ranks products by vendors. Using this, you could get lots and lots of data from one source. By averaging mean prices from the top 10 cheapest vendors, you'd wash out wierd one-time price break deals that would pollute your data if you only considered the cheapest. They also have data for complete systems. It's also probable that pricewatch keeps archived data of prices. You might consider emailing them. Finding a smart techie in their NOC who thinks AI is cool and you might get your hands on 5+ years of perfect data on every index of computing power. CPU, hard drives, tape storage, RAM, everything. -Brad ------- To unsubscribe, change your address, or temporarily deactivate your subscription, please go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?[EMAIL PROTECTED]
