    10% off Coupon for Ebay

    Wow, I thought sure that first code would be dead by now, especially after reading the whole thread- but it just got me $1.55 off a postage scale. Thanks! Too bad the guy charges $1.99 for insurance (required). It's odd, because shipping is UPS ground, which includes up to $100 insurance for...

    MGM DVD Class Action Settlement

    He's got to be the lawyer for the plaintiffs. Oftentimes they're the ones that start these things, then find a couple schmoes to be the initial plaintiffs. The only person who makes out on these things are the lawyers. Class actions are more intended to punish the big company than reap any...

    HP LaserJet 1012

    Don't know where that's from, but it's wrong. They're using "ink" as a general term: 1 : a colored usually liquid material for writing and printing 2 : the black protective secretion of a cephalopod Ink implies a liquid, whereas toner is actually plastic beads. That's why the fuser is so...

    Hot or not? Dell 2001FP drops to $599!!

    Somebody's been watching the "new improved" Dan Rather. He made more quips last night than I can count... count... Count Basie :D Back on topic.. that is a sweet deal... but it would have to be, with a 20" Widescreen that cool for $800

    HOT: Digital rebel 300D for $395

    I am planning on picking one of these up this year, but not from these guys. That Canon rebate says right on it that you must purchase from an authorized reseller. If you pick up a couple lenses, you can get tripple rebates, which amounts to $300 back on the camera alone. On another note, we...

    OMG! unlimited rentals for 9.99/month?

    IANAL, but I would think that renting an obscene amount of movies in a short period of time would be justification enough for many judges to issue a warrant to see if you're running an illegal DVD copying service. Probable cause doesn't mean "the only explanation", it means the most likely...

    Flat Screen TV $150

    I paid $499 for a 19" TV once. And this one time, I sold a Mac SE and an HP Deskwriter for $1,600. Of course, I had upgraded it to 2.5 Mb. :D

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    Kind of like my 100 Watt stereo that's only 10 watts? I was going by CC's site where it said 3.1 - the box and camera body say 3.2. I'm guessing this has something to do with effective and actual, and 1 Million Pixels != Megapixel? Steve's site lists the CCD at 3.2 million pixels, but then...

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    Cool - glad you got the deal. I'd probably like the xD cards better if I didn't already have almost 2 GB worth of CF cards and a couple of readers, but this was for my nephew anyhow. He'll just transfer the pics with the camera, so it won't matter for him. Heck of a camera for a 9 yr old - I'm...

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    Sweet. I wish they had more deals like this - I love the in-store pickup. Last Christmas Eve I ordered a bunch of stuff before I left work. Went there and hour later, and I was in and out literally in 5 minutes.

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    You have to do it online - I believe it is a closeout deal though, so if your local store and the shipping warehouse are both out of stock, I assume you're out of luck.

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    You have to order for in-store pickup or have it shipped to get the online price. You can't just walk in and get Internet pricing. The added bonus, you don't have to wait for a salesperson, just go to customer service. Of course, none of that matters if the local store is out of stock. When I...

    Fuji FinePix A330 3.1 Megapixels @ Circuit City $99

    Search Circuit City's site for 43860890 - they list it as $179.99 crossed out and "add to cart to see price". As much as I hate that, I think it paid off in this case. Ordered it for pickup at my local store, maybe not such a hot deal if you pay to have it shipped. 3.1 Megapixel, 3x Optical...

    newegg RIDATA 8X DVD-R $41.99 AR/ $4 shipping

    What version BIOS are you running? I couldn't find anything for the 2510a. I didn't look for the 3500a. Being that the 3500a has the same problem, and Verbatim 8x's are no problem, I would assume it's the discs I got.

    newegg RIDATA 8X DVD-R $41.99 AR/ $4 shipping

    I bought a 25 pack of RiDATA 8x DVD+R's from Newegg, and they'll only do 4x on my NEC 2510a and my NEC 3500a, regardless of what software I use. Newegg refused to take them back, citing a "compatibilty issue". Kind of ticked me off since I bought everything from them, everything was rated at 8x...
