For comfort, I do still recommend these. Best money could buy in my eyes is purely performance related, but your ride quality would suffer greatly. I'd wait for some other opinions though.
You can check
www.groupbuycenter.com for good prices. Also, there are two versions... one has the front two struts externally adjustable only, and the other version (~$40 more) has all four adjustable. You want to be able to adjust all four externally.
Shox.com also has great prices. When I was looking at them, they had the yellows for ~$540 and I think around $190 for the pro-kits.
