Staples clearence Kodak DX4900 $174.50 YMMV

I got one on Sunday. The Staples in Arlington, VA on Glebe Rd had/has a display model left. All other area stores seem to be out. I didn't want to get a display model (even though they said they had the box and all the wires) so I told them to hold if for me (just in case I changed my mind)...

Giants and Evolva for $10 CompUSA

I liked Giants single player but thought the races were too unbalanced for online play. There are some patches for it. I think one makes blood red in the game and the other eliminates the sea nymph's top. In the UK version of the game she is topless. The second patch really increases...

Casio computer driven label printer for $9.99 at OD

I purchased one of these when Staples clearanced them for about ten bucks. Hooks up through USB to your computer. You need to copy, open the program, paste and then print for it to work. This item is great for someone who occasionally needs to make labels, not someone who churns out labels...

Wisconsin's NO CALL list goes Live!! - and links to other states

I think someone hit the nail on the head in saying that the Telephone is a SERVICE that the USER pays for. Telemarketers impede my ability to use this service. I don't know how many times I've been waiting for an important call only to pick up the receiver and find myself greeted with a...

Bartering for Clearance @ CompUSA (YMMV of course)

Pretty simple. Offer what you think is fair, not what you think they will accept. If they don't like your offer so be it. I have haggled on some stuff there and gotten good deals, and other times I've been rejected. One of the stores near me currently has a 400mhz G4 Mac tower for the...

Got mine tonite in VA. They had a display with some clearance PDA stuff. They had the gaming joystick that you clip over the Handspring for $9.50 and some sync cradles; no Eyemodules in the display though. I asked somebody and they had 2 left behind the counter in a cabinet. So if you don't...

Apex 1500 $59.99 after MIR CompUSA- BTW,Low end Apex DVD players manufactured after 4/15/02 to not support VCD playback!

Got one of the last 3 1500s today at the Alexandria, VA store. Register guy gave me some guff, but a quick talk with the manager got me the LOTR for free. I'm not concerned with SVCD, VCD, etc. as much as just plain old DVD. This is a great price for a relatively cheap gift for a friend who...

Hot! - Microsoft Intellimouse Replacement Offer

Mine was shipped USPS Media Mail. It was a week or less. IF it shipped on 6/26 you should have received it by now. I CALLED after that. I don't know what is with people these days. People complain that companies don't offer good service, and when the companies do, people take advantage of...

Hot! - Microsoft Intellimouse Replacement Offer

My Upgrade Status page says In Process. I was fortunate enough to be able to fix my old mouse. I took the thing apart and noticed that the way the wire is fed out the back of the mouse allows it to get "crimped." I cut out this part and spliced the wire back together. There was some room to...

Hot? Digital Phot Album $49.99 at Microcenter

BUT, if you don't have a digital camera or access to compact flash, you are out of luck. As far as I know Kensington is the only one with frames that can be accessed without CF.

Hot? Digital Phot Album $49.99 at Microcenter

This deal is at least warm. The good thing about this frame is that it can connect directly to your computer through USB. That way you can give it as a gift to grandparents, email them the pictures of the kids, and then they can download them to the frame. You don't need compact flash, etc...

WTF is wrong with Win2k?

Sorry about that, I just meant to reinstall the ACPI driver again. Go from ACPI to Standard PC and then Back to ACPI. There are lots of things to try though. You could pull all the memory sticks and try them installed one at a time, maybe one isn't up to spec. You could pull all of your PCI...

Problems with Hibernate in W2K Pro

Tried it. That didn't help. I could understand if it locked up going into hibernate everytime (something wouldn't be compatible with hibernate), but being able to do it, then not, that is the confusing thing.
