Anyone have experience with composite decking?

Could it be too good of a price to be true?

EDIT: just looked at the site and this board is hollow....I wonder how much weaker (if at all) it is compared to solid composite boards.

$25/ft? Probably more like $25 for a 12' board. This stuff is normally $1.49/ft, so a 12' board would be $17.88, getting it a lot closer in the ball park. It's easy to hit $2-2.50/ft if you want to go with much richer colors, but I'm guessing I'm going to need about 2000+ feet just for the deck surface alone-that doesn't even touch new posts, rails, caps, etc.
