how to deal at B&M stores (help needed)

Plain and simple I suck at negotiating. I'm planning on getting a new stereo system Klipsch Rx-7 series system and a denon 3805. The problem is the only place that really has this stuff in my areas is good guys and online dealers aren't authorized. The 36month no interest financing will be great...

(Updated) Plextor PX-712A "12x" DVD±R/RW Drive "$164.99" or Artec 12x/8x "$82.00" & Optorite 12x/8x "$89.00" shipped

I remember reading that at 16x the RPM is quite high Philips said the discs could literally be in danger of shattering from the force, so they predicted 16x would be it. Of course everyone kept saying moore's law would be dead too but its still going strong. We'll just have to wait and see i...

WD 7200 80GB 8mb $39.99 AR @ Best Buy!! Expires 11/22/03

i was thinking that too, but its just such a hassle to deal with the crowds. To save what 10$? or get an extra few gigs for the same price. This is easy aside from the rebates

250GB WD IDE HD available at Amazon also for $84.10 AR, any amazon coupon could be combined?

so it seems my local circuit city has the drive, its not going to be a problem to use the "old" form that shows through the 22nd is it? circuit city site is wrong about availability nm

Canon S-400 at Dell for $374

there WAS no comparison, yes i know the s400 is an excellent camera, but the g500 is just as good or better (in most to all situations), for less money. People on tech boards can all be very close minded, there are no blanket statements in technology, but you have to be well aware of all the...

actually it doubles all warranties up to a year, so 90 day warranties only give you extra 90 days. 5 year warranties only give you an extra year

there are still some made with potatoes but its my understanding is that using potatoes introduce many more impurities so it must go through extra filtering to remove them.
