    Halo 2 for $42.99 at Costco

    Halo 2 Regular Edition for $42.99. Saw this at my local Costco today (Seattle, WA). It's probably not the best deal, but for those who must have instant gratification and don't want to pay full price... =)

    Seagate 120GB $59.99 AR CompUSA

    I just got this drive, it's so stinkin' quiet compared to the WD. I think it's supposed to be a little slower than the WD, but I can't tell the difference. al

    Mozilla FireFox 0.8 Out!

    hey krunk, can you give some examples, i've loaded a few pages just to see, but seems like they're pretty even, maybe i'm just not hitting the heavy duty pages. al

    Mozilla FireFox 0.8 Out!

    oh... i didn't realize they had a "google toolbar" for firefox as well, i was talking about the little tiny search box that comes standard with firefox, not the full fledged one you mentioned that had to be installed later. Just installed it, looks like they work exactly the same, getting rid...

    Mozilla FireFox 0.8 Out!

    Having Google on the toolbar is nothing special, you can get the Google Toolbar here: http://toolbar.google.com/ Google Toolbar works a lot better than the tiny little box on Firefox and it does a good job blocking pop ups as well. Al

    Mozilla FireFox 0.8 Out!

    I've been using Firebird/Firefox for about 2 weeks now, I like the tabbed browsing, the pop up blocking, but it's not faster for me, where are you guys seeing all this magical speed? Are you guys on modems? Is that why? I'm on cable and everything loads the same if not a little slower. Al

    make a $1 after rebate on a 7 in 1 card reader

    Don't want to crap on this deal, but $3.95 processing and handling fee on top of the $7.99 shipping fee??? I guess they have to make money somehow. How retarded. Al

    KBtoys is giving 30% off to buyers in store from Oct 8-14 to settle a lawsuit.

    i went by and checked it out, it didn't seem like they purposely marked anything up... most things have their trademark of red pen crossing out a higher price and marking in a lower price and i didn't see anything that was blatantly more expensive, if expensive at all. the kb i went by also...

    getting still warmer: Sony 17" LCD (16ms, DVI) $406 @ newegg

    I have this monitor, black in color, i got it for $446, should have waited two more weeks. It's working great, no dead pixels, super sharp, colors are very nice, it's very bright, you can set it so that it adjusts the backlight level by itself. It also has three inputs, 1 DVI and 2 15-Pin. It...
