    I can't say I've ever said it out loud, I only have to type it on internet forums :p

    If I was going to though, I'd probably say 9 thousand 8 hundred. Meh.

    Wow these "how do you say" things just get stupider.

    ninety eight hundred is how I say it.

    nine eight hundred may have less syllables but ninety eight hundred just rolls of the tongue

    I agree. Ninety-Eight Hundred. If I had that much money I would say I have ninety-eight hundred dollars. So thats what I go with.

    i always say "ninety eight hundred", i dunno, i just dont like the sound of "nine eight hundred." sounds like a cheap mortgage commercial or something. "call for your free consultation with no obligation. call nine-eight-hundred, four-seven-six, six-eight-hundred". [/spaz moment] but yeah, i think "ninety eight hundred" rolls off the tongue better :p

    its the same with the Nokia phones, i say 'thirtythree ten'
    i also have a ninefivefifty GPU.....nine five five zero just sounds crap and it also is confusing when you say the mem/core speeds in the same sentence...
