im no dummy with this stuff...

maybe you can help...the paper is 10.5x12
and the scanner width is ONLY 8...
8-10.5 = -2.5
that means 2.5 inches will be cut off...if put one way...4 inches the other...

I'm just yanking ya Tokar..... thats awesome you are scanning in the ad...

I would do one of two things....

or only scan in the crap that is not on their website under the e-update link....

USB cable and 25ft CAT5 seem pretty hot, but the rest of it...

Microcenter hasn't had any really hot deals for awhile now. They used to have a lot of good deals on blank CD-R's, but Office-Whatever's have been better (for me) lately. The Pioneer CD-R's (I bought a 100pk awhile ago for $30 some dollars) are okay, but they're ugly, and not Taiyo-Yuden's. OfficeDepot had $50packs of 80min hp cd-r's (made in japan, T-Y) for $15 which I opted for instead. They had an IO/Magic 24x burner for $75-some dollars which i looked up online and found was an Aopen, with users bitching on the IO/Magic message boards. I bought the veloCD (LiteOn) at Best Buy for some $142 with tax and $70 of MIR rebates - which is not only cheaper than Microcenter, but cheaper than newegg..

MC also carries a lot of second rate products, be they CD-R's, surge supressors, or cooling products (fake overprices golden orbs made by AOC.. I've bought genuine orb's online for under $15 shipped..)

The clearance items are a pretty mixed bag. The Epson Stylus Photo 750 I bought is pretty flaky, which may have to do with it not being use very often - it isn't used very often because it uses inks specific to that model, which are hard to find/expensive.

I bought an Efficient Speedstream router there ($20 after a rebate I neglected to send in, thinking I'd get around to returning it, which I didn't) and found it to be a pretty poor performer, unable to fully utilize the 3500/800 connection I was getting from the now defunct Sprint ION DSL service I had at the time; It cut my bandwidth down to the 1600/300 ballpark, and was even slower when port forwarding was enabled.

On the other hand, it's a convenient source for Antec Jet-Cool HSF's at a reasonable price.

Basically, if it's cheap and you're not familiar with the product or who makes it and it's being sold at Microcenter, be wary.

Tokar, did you just get 50 posts in 2 days?

I could have sworn you started with 1 yesterday. It took me 2 years to get 100.

<< Besides the fact that MC is the only place one can GET EVERY part needed to build a computer...
Compusa dont sell mobo's, neither does the other places like BB and CC...
same with PS and cases...well cases maybe not, but they are pretty expensive outside MC...
>>


Hmm, now my CompUSA and BB (don't know about CC cause I never checked) sell motherboards. They have Tyan and something that starts with a s, can't remember. Sometimes they even carry CPUs (low end ones). If a person wanted to I can find every part to a computer at CompUSA, thru it would be a little pricey versus a visit to Fry's.

There's a really dope 24 pc toolkit that you can get for around $5.00. Unfortunately, the MC in Santa Clara was OOS. I ended up picking up a WinTV TV tuner card today.

I'll bump this because it does make their prices tolerable now with the 20% off. Can get the ATI AIW 8500DV for $320 + tax, which isn't too bad. They stated that they would have the eVGA 8500DV AIW starting Sunday at the same price.

Went there looking to try and get a deal on a Ti200, unfortunately they either do not carry any or are sold out. Only thing I found was a GF3 (@ $343 before 20%) or a MX200 (run away) or the ATI 7500 @ $199 - 20% (yuck)....

Anyway, there are some decent deals there, just nothing I was looking for. Good luck...it ends Sunday.....

I've ordered from them twice in the last week. Both times my packages came the next day! I have never been so impressed with shipping as I have with them.
I picked up a couple nice printer stands, they have 3 drawers, 10 bucks each. 16mb CF cards for $10 each, a 128mb CF for $50. A couple of chargers and batteries, under $18 each and several USB cables for a buck each.
Wish we had one in Western NY

<<What paper does the microcenter Ad appear in?>>

When I called up Microcenter, they said that their ad doesn't run in any papers (Norcal at least). Just call them up to get included on their mailing list.
