The X1800XL is pretty comparable with both cards winning some tests and
losing some tests. However drivers are stil rather new on ATIs side so
you're bound to see even more improvement.

In performance, the X1800XL is comparable to the 7800GT. However, in price
the X1800XL costs about $100 more.

$100 More? I'm not seeing that.

look about the same to me. 7800GT maybe $10-$30 less on average.

Both have free shipping, incidentally.

The difference has shrunk to $50, not as bad as when the X1800XL first
debuted, but still a 16% gap.
