    nice man. Holy crap your tax is 10 bucks!? Thats crazy. Mine would be around 100 dollars. Where do you live where your tax is so cheap?

    I think you will get a $50 rebate with this.

    You got off pretty well with that cofig and price. And yeah, where do you live? Tax in CA would be killing the price (0.0825% = about $114).
