COMPUSA 23rd Anniversary Sale----TONS OF FAR ITEMS!

I have a 100% failure rate with CrapUSA. I finally wised up after the 5th failed rebate over a 2 year period. I suppose there is still some hope, but after 8.5 years, I'm doubtful I'll get them. RagManX

You strive to be the kind of person who doesn't accept stupidity as a valid state of being? Good for you. I wish there were more people who were intolerant of idiocy. And yes, I have worked many, many, many years in IT support. Oddly, my customers frequently ask for me by name and have...

cheapest place to order OBLIVION ?

Went to CompUSSR Tuesday, and they didn't have it out yet. Person who looked it up said it hadn't arrived yet. Went back today and found someone to ask. Told me they only got one copy in this week, and it was not the CE. Oh, and it sold Tuesday a little before I got there - guy who looked it...

200GB Seagate ATA $29.99 AR. 15 cents per GB

I have never received a CompUSA rebate, so I no longer even consider their rebates as a reduction in price. My first failed CompUSA rebate was 8 years ago, and I've had 3 no-shows since. I'm slow, but I'm not stupid. If CompUSA had a $3000 high-end laptop with $100 manufacturer's rebate and a...

Best price I can recall seeing for 512 Meg. As for Buy.com rebates, I've had 100% success rate. Never needed to even call to check on them. Of course, I've also had 100% success with TigerDirect, so I might just be lucky. RagManX

Awesome price for the FEATURES

I really don't need a whole new system, but for the 2000 MB DIMM, I ordered 6. I figure if I strip the good parts from one and sell the other 5, I'll have a nicely upgraded system at home and still make a profit. Oh, and I'll probably sell the 10.00 GHz AMD, as I'm running a 27.00 GHz AMD...

Sceptre X9g-Gamer 19 inch

I have this LCD. Wife got it for me as a Christmas gift. I love this thing. 1280x1024 on a 19" LCD is a better match for my eyes than 1600x1200 on a 20" would be. As mentioned above, I actually found it a little too bright, and had to turn it down some. I've never seen any ghosting or...

Movies download $1.99/month

I like how they have a "Recently featured on" section with Yahoo, Google, and some other sites listed. I can't find mention of them on any of the sites, and searches just turn up their ads and a link to a report at ripoffreport.com of the service not working. Be sceptical. RagManX

Current estimate I've seen suggest another 15-20 years of IPv4 before v6 even becomes dominant. By moving to IPv6, won't Anand's become unavailable to users who don't know how to set up their machines to talk v6? Certainly all the v6 sites I've seen required me to go through a v6 gateway...

Soyo Socket A Barebones Kit (Computer) with 52x CD-ROM, Keyboard, Mouse and Speakers $19.99 AR.

Back to $19.99. The $40 in rebates that originally expired 06/30/04 have now been extended to 07/09/04. I'm still on the fence here. Even without the rebates, this is pretty decent price, and I need to build another system for my sons' daycare. RagManX

The 8500 is 128 bit, while the 9600SE is 64 bit. I think the non SE 9600 would be preferred to the 8500, but the preference is probably revered when considering an SE. RagManX
