incredibly, the time/date stamp on SP23282.exe is "01-17-03 11:13AM". this file is not listed within...
had the same happen to a friend. two bad drives in a row. he didn't try a third time. (well, for the third time he tried best buy.)
i was sure to get a retail drive (skipped the oem 80gb drive they had for $90 [no rebate] earlier this week), gotten out of the middle of the stack, appearing...
ditto. it's a hassle to get to the store, but the biggest hassle is inside the store. bad customer service. bad setup (wrong/conflicting price tags). just bad. BUT occasionally they have a deal good enough (and i have a need big enough) to drag me out there and through the store.
the $30...
dang, people are really having rebate form problems with this deal. sorry, let me correct that... FRY'S is really having rebate form problems with this. ;-)
i don't know what ignorance/stupidity fry's is feeding some of y'all, but the rebate form right here (gonna mail it tomorrow) is for...
the rebate has both the fry's electronics and outpost.com emblems on it and also says, "Offer valid only at Fry's Electronics or Outpost.com 12/20/02 thru 12/24/02".
so... buy the drive from outpost.com, get the rebate (call outpost.com and get it from them, call fry's and get it from them...
how do you tell the difference between v1 & v2 cards? what is the difference? voltage (5v vs 3.3v)?
when you say "won't work" can you elaborate?
i can't get the pcmcia-pci adapter & pcmcia card belkin combo to work in a win98 box, but the same hardware (nic, adapter, and computer) works fine...
fulfilled? you mean paid or just accepted?
gfs just acknowledged receipt of my paperwork on their website on 12/13 (or at least that's when i noticed it, as i don't check on my rebates daily). the website just says, "We have processed your mailed submission. Please allow three to four weeks...
the $20 instant rebate is not being honored, but the two ($50 & $30) rebates are applicable to both fry's and outpost.com (as printed on the rebates). one requires the original upc ($30), but the other allows for a copy ($50). so if you can get the drive from outpost.com w/o tax & s/h (which...
maybe "surplus". does compgeeks have that as a possible type?
teamexcess (where i've purchased my last two matrox cards over the last two years) is another place that sells surplus (and used?) equipment.
basically, the oem (compac, ibm, hp, dell, etc) bought a large number of these cards for...
bought it from ajump.com last week for $50, no tax, no s/h. received it in one day (as they have a warehouse nearby).
purchased velcro self-adhesive "dots" at a fabric store to put on the feet of the switch so that i can stick the switch to the underside of my desk (yet still be detachable)...
let me tell my tale about officemax rebates, as a caution of what may be to come for some of you.
i bought a belkin 802.11b pcmcia card at officemax a few weeks ago. the product was advertised with a $10 rebate, and the rebate receipt even printed at the register.
but, by mistake officemax...
thanks for trying to be helpful, but your wrong.

so, no, the adapter is mainly just an isa-pci bridge, and at a base...

why didn't somebody tell me that kerio is what became of tiny personal firewall? when i read this thread, i thought to myself, "you know, i haven't updated tiny in a long time. i wonder what version they are up to now," and proceeded to their...
msh111 (or anybody): what/who's drivers are you using to get the dell and dlink to work?
i bought the officemax belkin deal (card w/ this adapter free) and both a usr & proxim card (all prism-chipset based) and using the belkin windows drivers, it won't recognize the non-belkin cards. i think...
the cables are not what scare me (though they may be of low quality; i don't need cables any longer than 6 feet), it's the impression i got of the quality of the unit (purely, speculatively based on it's size). i have a hard time believing that a unit that compact/small can have good enough...
well, this deal should be marked "DEAD".
PS2KVMSK: $59.08 (in-stock)
KVM100SK: $80.27 (back-ordered)
KVM2KIT: $33.79 (in-stock)
the new price (~$60) falls in line with what other sites are charging. i'm still contemplating getting it as it has a good history (lots of positive reviews), still...
just bought one last night at my local staples. ~$33 after tax. here's my tale:
i have two staples, both within 15 minutes of my house. (not gloating, just being thankful during this thanksgiving season. ;)) so on my way home from work, i hit the furtherest staples first. no go. not even a...
fleshconsumed:
found here. that same page lists a telephone number you can call for info. called it just this morning to check on a rebate (that has been stuck at "new", meaning they hadn't received my paperwork, for three weeks now) and they were very professional. of course, YMMV, as i...
just got off the phone with two of my local staples (living in a metropolitian area is nice).
it rang up at 199.50 at both places, so i would say that's the "official" price. one was out of stock, the other had stock: one boxed, one floor/display model. the csr spoke to the manager (at my...
DANG IT! YOU'RE RIGHT! :|
i saw "F5D5020" on the rebate form and mistook it for "F5D6020" (the part # for the actual pcmcia wireless adapter).
this has got to be either the biggest blooper on the part of om's marketing dept (as it's advertised as rebate available on both the website and b&m...
i jumped on this deal as hopefully this card is thin enough to be placed in the second pcmcia slot beneath another wireless card. (can anybody confirm/deny this?) and even if it doesn't, assuming this rebate comes through, i'm only out ~$4 for a spare card.
with two cards on the laptop and...
for me, this is HOT because:
the pcmcia card is prism-based (linux support for host-ap & sniffing),
has a low profile antenna (supposedly stackable),
comes with a linux-supported pcmcia-pci adapter (for shared use between a laptop and desktop), and
all for < $60 (which is about the cheapest i've...
