The Evolution in Flash Drive pricing

Way, way back when I was in college, I wrote about a 64GB flash drive being made available. At the time, it seemed like a world of portable storage, but the price made it prohibitive. How prohibitive, you might ask? It's more expensive than a computer, that's for sure. Check that post [which goes back about 5 years here.

I went to a tech store, Newegg.com who sell similar products from the same manufacturer and see the huge change in prices from then to now. See the current price of the same sized flash drive from the same manufacturer
here.

Now if only Solid State Drives start dropping in price soon, so that I can start affording them.
