Any details on the LCD?

 

[gamefreakgcb]

Sweeeet LCD. Whats the response time? Brand name?

 

[Breezie]

I googled the T701 LCD monitor and it says its a BenQ on most sites with a 16ms response and others said 25ms response

Picked up a Daewoo F227 17" LCD from MicroCenter last year. Was supposed to be $249 after rebate, but rung up as $249 so with a $50 rebate total was $199....was 1st in line

Also picked up a R9800 Pro 128 w/HL Coupon for $199AR, and a Palm Pilot for $60.

The compnay I work for actually makes some of the chips that goes into that LCD. The verdict: it will be good at best.

 

[o0deviant0o]

WOOOOW

 

[Nick5324]

some good stuff, but Microcenter's line is going to be the worst. I would say i'd have to camp out to be towards the front.

 

[vnmaster]

Are theses in store prices or online?
Thanks

I received the same email yesterday and I don't remember the HD requiring any coupons. Here's what is says exactly:

519322 / reg. $59.99
Save $40 immediately
While supplies last

I'll go look tomorrow and see if they have any and give you an update.

**EDIT**
I'm just talking about the HD, not the other items on the email.

Is there any MIR for the Maxtor HD? Does Microcenter open early on BF? I showing their regular hours are 10-9 on Friday.

 

[BW5150]

I heard they opened at 6am atleast the ones here in ohio.

 

[AStar617]

Thank God Micro Center has a Boston presence (Cambridge). They've had some pretty badass deals as of late...

 

[Tokar]

My cousin went last year cause he wanted their cheap desktop computer they had for like $300 or something.

He said it was a very good experience waiting in line...considering he got what he came for.
He said that because Microcenter had a big table set up with Coffee and Krispee Kreme donuts.
And the way they handle the hot stuff, like for example a cheap computer/component, like the laptop and LCD they have this year is they ask everyone in line, in order of when they got there what they are going for and they give them a voucher guaranteeing them one of the stock. They have as many vouchers for the items as they have stock.

 

[BoKingWen]

The LCD looks hot....what happen to frys where is their ad.

 

[NICKel]

Is this B &amp; M only?
