I don't see the problem, isn't that how global corporations are suppose to work? Bad market conditions, shortages = higher profits? At the very least I know it works for the oil industry.

I believe the prices will go down, not sure if they will go down as low as they were, but we can hope.

That's just awesome!  I wonder if the government is going to jump on this since it appears there won't be any competition now a days.

I remember paying $75.00 dollars for 2TB HDD at bestbuy.  Now, I am paying $110.00....$35.00 dollars increase.  However, I did read an article on CNET.com that the prices for SSD will start coming down in the next month or so.  Apparently competition for that is pretty high.
