<grin>... Unfortunately, there's very little that I would consider outrageously
priced in the computer hardware area anymore (cars, well... different story).  
I WOULD like to see the price of digital cameras come down, the price of
monitors fall faster than it is (it's dropping, but gradually), and flat-screen
LED monitors become the norm (which I can almost guarantee they will be in
10-15 years, probably less).
