Stopped by shortly after opening, and they were already sold out of these as well as the 25pk CDRW for $7.95. Apparently each store received exactly 6 of the Memorex DVD+RW spindles.
Coincidentally, they weren't accepting rainchecks/holds "on certain items", including these DVDs.

That's pretty typical of computer speakers. Since you have both systems, if you haven't tried hooking up the Onkyo to your PC, can you at least tell me which system you'd rather LISTEN to a DVD on? Thanks. This kind of A/B comparison from someone who has both systems would be a big help.
Coax digital from the SPDIF output on an nForce SoundStorm to the digital input on the amp. If that's a problem for some reason, both the SoundStorm and the amps also have separate analog connections for each channel.
And the power ratings on PC speakers are? :P
Ah! Just the kind of...
The best they had when I checked was an older version of the Onkyo system for the same price as new but with a free DVD player (which I really don't need). Thanks for mentioning the other forums... some good information there.
So, which PC speaker setup do you think WOULD outperform it? I've...
Followup:
Found another unit that may beat the Kenwood by a bit. Slightly more enthusastic reviews, although apparently the remote is a real low point. (The Kenwood has much better layout and a neat joystick.) But the big factor is sound, and with 5.5" front woofers and a 150W powered sub...
Being rather underwhelmed at the state of the art in computer speakers, I thought I'd venture into the low-end home theater market instead, as it seems to offer a huge potential jump in quality over even "high end" computer speakers.
Most of these seem to come equipped with video-shielded front...
Yeah, saw this one--wasn't sure if it was deal-worthy but it tempted me:
- It's a Western Digital SE drive, the highest rated IDE performer according to StorageReview.
- It has a 3-year warranty, which are becoming less common for IDE.
- It includes a controller card in case you have an...
Thanks for a very helpful reply, Mac!
I had a moment of sanity recently when I dropped $325 on a 36GB SCSI drive and was greatly tempted to double it and get the 72GB version for $650. Then I remembered seeing all of the IDE drives in here and figured I that for the money I could get 10X the...
I've never purchased an IDE drive for myself before--I've run an exclusive SCSI shop since the mid-80's. However, comparing these IDE prices to the current fast SCSI drives ($8/GB for 15k.3's) has inspired me to build a low-speed server for multimedia data. So, pardon the IDE-novice questions...
The L01P120 appears to be only offered through a third-party merchant now (OfficeDepot) so it no longer qualifies for free shipping, and the price is $10 higher ($179.95). Since you're purchasing through Amazon.com, I would think you could still qualify for the $50 rebate.
Oh well, at $1/GB...
Thanks. Handy for the spare parts inventory.
I was ordering from Directron anyway, so it came to just 12.79 with the incremental shipping cost.
Also ordered two more of these great 300W power supplies. Cheap resurrection for older boxes. :)
This is indeed a hot deal. Thank you! :D
The beauty of POP3 service is that you can forward your other spamtrap addresses there and use your mail client to filter them to an alternate folder. Then you can sift through your "spam" folder once in a while just in case something useful...
