    Why not?

    8 GB for under 20 seems good to me, unless there is a problem with the product itself.

    It's very easy to crap on a deal without giving a reason. Back yourself up with facts.

    I thought so, too, eleron.

    Judging by the other posts of mail2019, he never backs up anything he says.
