BEFORE all the crap hit the fan with me ? $300 would be REALLY tough to turn down

Re: at what price would you CONSIDER to buy a blue
Would depend on power/quality. I see some cruddy looking excuses for blues being sold at ~$360, but you usually pay a good bit more for anything half-decent. I personally shelled out $1k on an RPL Blue 17mW - so you can guess I'm pretty insane about blue.

Not yet really. Sharp has announced they can make 440nm diode, but it may be a long time before we see any feasable blue diode on the market for us, and even longer before power becomes cheap. Hopefully we'll get our break on blue within the next year or three though. Gotta feel sorry for the lasershow guys though! Blue diodes aren't gunna help out the people who need high power blues at all.

Wishful thinking huh

I'd love to, but it's so interated into an application now that it's basically beyond hope of play until it's replacement comes online...
That is a 5 watt greenie ( that's also a 10+watt IR or a 2 watt UV etc etc) YAG that I can play with.. I just got a camera back, still have another one i just bought that broke, so pics are coming soon.
