Buying a TV or computer as well, for that matter

Have you seen the price of TVs & Computers recently? TVs have been dropping non stop for the last 2 years straight. Computer prices continue to drop AND get way faster. You can buy 2 GB of GREAT DDR2 RAM for $70 now. Last year at this time, it would have been $250. You can buy laptops now for $500 and a desktop for $300 (or $350 with a monitor) that's actually pretty decent. The same computers 2 years ago would have been over $2,000.

Most televisions and computer components are not made in the US. Therefore, a dropping dollar WILL make them more expensive. As for the drop in memory prices, imagine how much cheaper they’d be with a strong dollar. 8GB flash memory would probably be $35.
