    Staples Kingston HyperX 3k SSD: 90GB=$60, 120GB=$65, , 240GB=$150

    I managed to snag one from the Grand Blanc, MI store. They were pretty cool about doing the price match to the online price and even let me use the coupon. I'm toying with the idea of ordering a second one from the website.

    Google Rolls Out New GBike

    Most bikes with a single caliper brake have it mounted on the back. This one has it front mounted, which doesn't seem like a real good idea. It looks like it might have a coaster brake also which is an odd combination.

    OS help for Dell Inspiron 1721

    I can tell you from experience that any Dell branded Vista (or XP) cd/dvd will work on your system. I would be shocked if you can't find a friend or relative with a dell desktop or laptop that has their Dell OS disc that you can borrow. The install will not prompt you for a product key because...

    Check out microcenter... you can get a Athlon II X4 640 with a MSI 785 motherboard for 106 bucks. Add $50 or so for 4GB of ddr3 and even with taxes you are well under $200. In fact for the $250 you came up with you could get a Phenom II X6 1055, the MSI board and 4GB of ram...

    Photographer of the Day

    He's probably not using photoshop because he's shooting film not digital. He is however combining multiple images from the negatives and using a lot of other techniques that photographers used to have to do on their own before Adobe even existed.
