$100 for Opening Citibank Ultimate Savings Account

I just signed up a few days ago for Ultimate Savings without knowing about this deal (I don't visit this site as often as I used to). Is there any way I can still get the 100?

please help me configure this T60 *** UPDATED: added question on T61

I ordered the T61, and upgraded to the WXGA+ or whatever. My total came to around 1230 with tax, so the configuration was around 1150. I got the 2 year warranty, 120 GB, 1 GB ram (1 SO-DIMM), the 2GHZ Core 2 Duo, etc. I figured the prices aren't going to get any lower before I need mine at the...

please help me configure this T60 *** UPDATED: added question on T61

I've actually just graduated college, so this will be a gift to myself for 'making it' and getting a real job, which I start at the end of July. I'm looking to dump the desktop behind me for now (until I get the itch to toy around again), and I see this as a nice replacement for my needs. But no...

Don't mean to hijack, but I have a concern related to the T61 sale. I don't really need a laptop til the end of summer, but this deal, especially with EPP, seems too good to pass up. Will I see prices like this in the next 3 or so months again, or will this be the absolute best time to buy if...

Hardest exam to get into a profession?

Yeah, see top 20% on an 8 hour exam is no joke. I'm in the process of taking actuarial exams (two down, 7 to go). I don't personally think they're as much difficult as they are a test of your discipline to study and willpower. Dave

Hardest exam to get into a profession?

In a nutshell, yes, they assess business risk (for insurance, pensions, liabilities, etc.) in terms of dollars somehow. As for exams, I think that the FE or MCAT would probably be much more difficult. Even the pharmacy licensing exam is probably more difficult than actuarial exams (which have...

Extracting raw data from multiple website tables?

I think that there is a program to write an internet macro in IE that will do what you're looking to do, however the name of the one I've used in the past is slipping my mind. I hope someone else can chime in on this.

Wrightspeed X1 EV Concept

Agreed. I also can't get over the fact that the guy gives no credit to Ariel for anything. Without their awesome frame/chassis/suspension/whatever you call it that the Atom has, this electric car would be nothing.

Wrightspeed X1 EV Concept

I'll take a stab: nice try but the chassis is lifted from ariel. It's not really much more than an atom with electric power, and I'd take the gas-fed honda-driven version for practicality any day of the week. It's just as fast (or faster) and probably cheaper to maintain.

NASA Estimates Moon Rocket Will Cost $104 billion

If you had read the article, they said that the vehicle taking the lunar capsule to the moon IS the shuttle replacement...thus it will already be in service by the time we go there, i think they said the latest for the retirement of the current shuttle is 2014 Dave

Right now, quality of service is moot because both offer really good service in my local calling areas. Most of the people I call have verizon, but verizon seems to be lacking in the cool phones dept. when compared to cingular. Any good reason to switch or should I just keep my current verizon...
