My boss (I work in non-high-tech retail) has this theory that due to the 
high turnover of product lines in the PC business that in the short term 
the prices will be out of whack between the Cdn and US prices, but as 
new products arrive (most things seem to have 3 month or less retail 
life before being replaced IMHO) they will be more and more 
competitively priced in Canada. The problem is that current stock was 
ordered months ago when the exchange rate was bad.
