Don't buy the HD from them. IINM, a few shops in IMBI plaza do sell Toshiba
HD. I wouldn't know the price for a 4.3GB Toshiba HD but I guess it's in the
region of USD300-400. Still quite expensive but definitely cheaper than what they
are quoting. That's the reason I prefer to get it mail-ordered from U.S. :-)
