If eBay is any indication, the asking prices of MDDs is dropping quite briskly. I was looking for MDD bits about a year ago and the only ones I was finding for less than $200US were the 867MHz type. Looking this week I have seen even 1.25GHz duals in this range. The supply is growing much faster than the demand. Even later G5s are starting to show up in the $300-$500 range, and quads for less than 1k$.
This might be the time to buy/salvage new world PPCs, before most of them get scrapped. 5-10 years from now they will be getting expensive again.
