    Newegg Skyhawk Aluminum Case w/ led, $79

    I think my link is actually $4 cheaper... I would think it's decent if you already have a good PSU, and appreciate a fairly dramatic lcd (and this does look very good... not sure how well it actually functions, though).

    20,000 free Logitech® Cordless Navigator Duo? Special Edition Mouse & Keyboard combinations

    Whoo-hoo! Got mine at exactly 5:00 pm after what I calculated to be around 2500+ attempts! I have NO IDEA how some of you got 12 of these. I was beginning to form a devious plot to actually try to use 2500 of those 20% off rebates in an anarchical plot to take down logitech, but I'll be happy...

    OK, this hasn't seemed to throw anyone else for a loop, but 100 free usb 2.0 cables? Holy crap! Imagine the marketing guys saying, "what we need is a gimmick...something outlandish.... 100 free usb 2.0 cables!"

    what MOTHA to buy with 70$ :-)-- Im narrowning them down

    What about the A7S333? (In case that link didn't work, that's an ASUS A7S333). It seems pretty decent for $72, it uses a SIS chip, but we're not stuck with ECS quality. But it's hard to verify b/c there's a dearth of information on the board.

    What is the BEST media for VCD?

    First of all, are you certain this is a problem with the media? It sounds like it happens on your PC too... is that true? Perhaps you could try to burn a vcd to about 5 different kinds of media, and see how it looks. And use a copy on your hard drive as the benchmark of quality. If you're...
