Best on-line vendor?

Just curious. I've ordered from many a website trhough pricewatch, but rarely do any of them carry the diversity of products I'm intersted in. Preferably, I'm looking for less than retail prices with marginal shipping costs. Dependability is also a large factor. Any thoughts are appreciated...

Ever been Laidoff?

I'm curious how those of you who've felt the tremmors of the dot bomb are recovering. Me, I'm finding it hard as hell to find work comperable even to the last job I had (and that one was a down from my previous work as far as salary is concerned.) Spooky time to be in IT, no?

Do you all not have cell phones? Platapus may be dialing a local call to that guys cell, yet the fellow is still losing minutes in a hurry. It may end up that he starts going into the red, so yes, it's a valid move (if still not a bit disporportionate.) John

Most dependable mid/low range vehicle

notoriously expensive too :( But I suppose if the verdict is Asian, then we'll have to go Asian... Edit: Price is the second foremost concern behind reliability. A sedan would be great but I'd be willing to bet that would drive it beyond $20k. We're definately aiming for $15k and under.

I can't think of any particular difference besides the modified TCP/IP stack, although I don't think that would interfere in the way they described. They aren't running dhcp, and I don't believe they've set their IP's to any of the resricted address (ie 127.xxx.xxx.xx, 255.000.000.00) yet they...
