    COSTCO: Upcoming NSW 2004 $39.99+tax out the door - $9.99 possible

    I believe, although I could be incorrect, that his point is that while your deal is a decent deal, it is possible to do better. If the item has been previously offered for FAR, then such a deal might come along again. ASUS Warning: Everything in this post may be wrong. . .

    vpr Matrix (BestBuy) 200A5 Mobile P4 2.0/1.2 Questions.

    Laptop Info Page. 1. The mobile P4 processor will only run at 1.2GHz, even when "Performance" is selected in the BIOS, which is supposed to force it to always run (regardless of using an adapter or a battery) at 2.0GHz. Has anyone heard of this being a problem with these laptops - I have seen...

    Officemax has the WD 60GB HDD 7200 RPM for $59.99

    Unfortuntely, according to the rebate form that I saw, the MIR for this hd expired on 3/8/03 (unless you are in AK or HI, then it's good this week until 3/15/03). The current MIR is for $20 for the 120 gb hd good until 3/15/03. Next week's MIR (good 3/16/03 to 3/22/03) is for $30 for the 40 gb...

    Differences in Crucial 256 DDR PC2100 Ram?

    Thanks, Nick! After reading your comments, I looked at the BACK of the memory sticks, and sure enough, the 8T sticks do not have any chips on the back, while the 16T sticks do. I would assume you are correct - the differences would be negligible, however, having fewer chips to pass through...

    Differences in Crucial 256 DDR PC2100 Ram?

    With the recent posts of the deals on this ram this weekend at Best Buy, I noticed some differences on the chips in my local store that I was hoping someone might be able to enlighten me about. All the chips that I saw have the "MT" on the left side (which I assume means they are Micron chips)...

    CyberPower 300VA UPS/Surge Protectror $19.99 AR

    BB had a 325VA/185W UPS by CyberPower for $9.99 AR before New Year's, which I picked up. I don't know much about UPS's in general, but the 185W model wasn't powerful enough to use just as a surge protector for my 350W/AMD XP1600+ system and 17" monitor; the damn alarm would keep going off and...

    Retail Sigma Box?

    Thanks, Talon. I wasn't sure if it was a feature; or if it referred to the packaging of the motherboard, like coming in a plain white box.

    Retail Sigma Box?

    I hope someone can help; I did a search for these terms and didn't find anything. I am looking into getting a Soyo Dragon+ motherboard from Newegg.com. The site lists the board as a Retail version, but then later states a "Sigma Box." What is a Sigma Box? I didn't see anything on Soyo's site...
