let me echo the people who have said PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE allow us to sort posts by MOST RECENT THREAD instead of MOST RECENT BUMP... I barely have time now to keep up with forum topics--I will never have time if I always have to wade through the same posts up at the top.
Except for that...
I went to UTD as an undergrad and enjoyed it. Apartments are excellent and if you are outgoing, there are actually a lot of places to plug-in with other students on campus--at least in your freshman year. Freshmen are in their own set of apartments and you meet a lot of people--past that, you...

Newegg has the ATI Fire GL4 graphics cards right now in their refurb section for $119 with free shipping, which is a heluva deal if you want a cheap entry into CAD or if you just want a pimp card to run dual DVI flatscreens. Retail boxed, these still go for $300-$400...
Tom's Hardware has a...
I did this back in the fall when they had a promotional. . . except back then you had to drive a Chrysler Minivan--boy did I feel cool squealing the tires on a minivan out of the parking lot and giving the sales rep a heart attack. . . end of the story is that the $50 GC showed up recently and...
as another potential hot deal, when I was in Sams the other day, they had the 17" KDS LCD displays for $499, no rebates required. thought it was worth mentioning. Dallas area.
The Klipsch for sale at Best Buy for $199 are the v2.400 model or whatever it was before the 4.1s came out. I have the older ones, and they sound great. The improvements made to the 4.1s include a cleaner crossover, an input jack, and a headphone jack. Other than that the sound itself is the...
Sort of sad commentary on the legacy we've left.
Read a vaguely related news-article a while back that they were having a lot of trouble in Australia at the wax-museum there. . . they had a wax cast of Clinton, and people kept pulling the zipper down on the pants. They eventally had to sew his...
If you want retail, Dragon Naturally Speaking 4.0 (or whatever is most current) got excellent reviews. . . I tried it for a few days but took it back because my system wasn't fast enough at the time to use it efficiently. (Had a P2-400 w/128mb of RAM). . . I would recommend a pretty cutting edge...
either way, i'm just glad to see these dropping--saw the 18.1" monitors in here the other day for $999. . . in another year or two, i may actually be able to afford to have one of these sitting on my desk. :)
Staples has this. Pricewatch and use a coupon. The deal gets even sweeter. I've been thinking about ordering one.
Does anyone have one in use? What are your thoughts on it. . .
amazon recently sent me a message cancelling my order. i was not happy, but this is the 4th or 5th time I've had amazon randomly cancel orders, so I'm getting used to it. *sigh* ohwell.
I am still trying to find a good 19" monitor for my desktop publishing system--tried two of the 19" Viewsonic PF790 monitors, and both of them had distortion problems, so I'm trying a different monitor.
The NEC FE950 is $422 at www.onvia.com
You can pricematch at Staples and use the...
I agree on this one--this isn't a bad price--no need to flame the newbie. If this was posted last week BEFORE the insane CompUSA deal on the Iomega, then I imagine people would have been a lot more encouraging.
Galip--don't let this sort of thing stop you from posting up whatever deals you...
Thanks for the heads up--my roommate has one just like this, and when my brother was over recently, he oohhed and aahhed over it, so I'm getting one to suprise him. Thanks everyone.

I've personally had bad experiences with these discs. I've probably had 3 packs of Dysan discs over the last 2 years--I got them just because they were cheap, and I've regretted it every time--you'd think I would learn.
The audio burns I made have quickly degraded into pops and...
I got the same message. . . delivered at 4:01 this afternoon. Not a happy camper, since I have all the other parts to finish up my system except that case :(. I'm definitely talking to a CSR. I'll post the results of how that goes later.
I was looking around on pricewatch, and found:
"64MB Corsair SDRAM PC133 8MX64 168 DIMM Unbuffered Valueselect Memory"
for $36/stick at Affordable Computers. . . Part Number# 3492

Dunno how well it overclocks or if it will run CAS-2...
Best thing to do with chairs is really to go try a bunch of different ones out. . . About two years ago, I spent a day going around and probably tried a hundred different chairs at a dozen different stores. . . Figured since I spend 4-6 hours a day in this chair working on projects, playing...
Best Buy has Imation 50pack 700mb CDRs on sale this week for $20. . . you can also get them off the web site, and I think that they still have free shipping. . . I grabbed a spindle today at one of their B&M stores. . . good discs for the money, IMHO.

I tried ordering a SX830 case from ChaseShop about 10 days ago, and they cancelled that part of my order due to stocking problems (without notifying me) and just sent me the 80mm fans that I had ordered to go in the case. Half a dozen emails and 2 phone calls never got me any sort of a...
