I believe that people mentioned a good deal here recently about a Wizoo 
set which included a good piano for $99.  IMHO, you won't find great 
sounds for dirt cheap.  The newest string libraries are typically 
expensive.  Are you looking for string ensembles or both?

Having said that though, there are two new orchestral sets which are 
supposed to provide great bang for the buck.  That is Garritan Personal 
Orchestra (http://www.garritan.com) and EastWest Quantum Leap Orchestra 
SILVER (http://www.soundsonline.com). Both libraries provide an entire 
library of orchestral sounds (brass, strings, winds, etc.) and they are 
$249 and $299 respectively and come with their own player (based on 
Kontakt).  If $249 is too much for you, then you're probably out of 
luck in trying to find a "great string library".
