I think Specialized came out with a steel road bike for 2010 to.

As the post above states: "Steel isn't dead, it's just gone boutique. "

I myself would get something lugged and custom if I was to go new. There are plenty of great independant builders using steel and lugs these days, and you could get away with paying about the same amount as an off the shelf too. The inly thing that has kept me from taking the plunge is the wait time is usually a couple of years or more.

And let's not forget everyones favorite: Rivendell
uh oh, I went there ha ha
I personally love Rivendells stuff.
