The question is very relevant to ur countrys economy. Why are we running after so much power ?

But also we shud ask a question why is ur dumb faced government levying such heavy duties and taxes on Pc peripherals such as Gpus. Had it not been for these "sweet" duties we all wud have had either mid seg gfx cards or hi end gfx cards. The recent duty cut hasnt been useful at all. I had this conversation with the mkt manager of Big Byte Corp. We talked abt the probs faced by the Gfx card vendors, abt how duties cut into their income and the reasons why they cant sell hi end cards at their actual prices. The same prob ails most other components. And we call ourselves a IT Superpower. Well so much for that. And the best thing is that these Duties and taxes are levied so that the local manufacturers are not hurt by foriegn competitors. LOL do we local manufacturers producing GPU's. Wot the government is doin just doesnt make sense sometimes and we have to put up against it.

And abt the hi speed components. It is only hi speed as long as it in the lab . Once it is out in the market it becomes accessible to one and all and at the same price as ur old proc at the time of ur purchases. So more the things change the more they tend to remain the same. I dont know if all ppl might agree with me or not.
