Not a bad a price, but it's $16 after a $20 rebate. Some of the reviews make the PSU somewhat suspect. I've had good luck with Antec, so I'll likely stick with them.

These may be Corsair's entry-level PSUs (like Antec's Basiq line), but they are solid (much better quality than that DiabloTek deal, but that one was FAR).
$17 is a good price for one of these. These days, it seems like the PSU market is so saturated at the lower ends, that they are practically giving these away via MIRs.
I would think it's because people's focus has changed from the desktop PC to more portable devices. It use to be everyone wanted a PC and upgraded constantly, now everyone wants a new phone every year...

Future CPUs (Broadwell) will only use BGA, not LGA, and will be soldered to the motherboard. I will be sad if desktop PCs end up like phones. I enjoy building PCs.
