    Dell's 20" 2005FPW for $397 SHIPPED (+ tax)

    This is such a tough one! Very good price and a very good display, but I've had my heart set on the Apple 30" for so long now... This is a matter of instant gratification (and a great price) at its finest! :)

    Apple Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger - ** ANANDTECH'S REVIEW POSTED **

    I co-authored an overview of Tiger Server on a different website. Here's the URL, if anyone's interested: http://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=2005041722220621

    About To Become A Reluctant Apple Owner

    When I had to roam the streets with my laptop, I had a 15" PowerBook with a Marware case, which I thought was great. Very light, easy to care for, just all around nice case to use. For my 17", since I may be traveling a great deal soon and feared accidentally dropping the laptop, I got a Zero...

    About To Become A Reluctant Apple Owner

    I never liked laptops until I got my first PowerBook. I've since upgraded to the new 17" 1.67GHz PowerBook from Apple and love it! The 17" screen makes the 15" just seem like a toy. You might be best served to look into an external display for the PowerBook as well. Especially when working...

    Apple Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger - ** ANANDTECH'S REVIEW POSTED **

    The QT7 HD content is truly beautiful. The 1080i videos will really push any machine out there. My 1.67GHz PowerBook 17" stuttered through it. I then tried it on a clean install ona dual 1.8GHz G5, which I connected to my Samsung DLP over DVI and optical to my sound system and you could still...

    Geil 1GB DDR PC3200 $88.35 shipped (1 stick)

    Anyone used this ram with Apple's PowerMac G5? I'm contemplating a large upgrade! :)

    Apple 30" Cinema Display $1994 Fry's Northern California

    Their customer service was exceptionally nice. I called in to see if they would honor this price in the Chicago area and originally the CSR said "of course! Our other locations are our competitors too", but I insisted that they confirm the price for me before I drove out, which they said that...

    New Apple PowerBooks

    Did anyone buy that Mushkin 1GB stick? That price is about half of what Crucial wants for theirs. Just realized! That's tempting! :)

    New Apple PowerBooks

    I have a Marware SportFolio for my PowerBook 15" and love it. I'm taking the plunge and upgrading to the 17" PowerBook myself. From my experience, I've found that Crucial RAM has had the best results in my Mac systems over the years. Never had an issue with any of their memory.

    Best Buy replacement plan

    I'll give you some advice... Stick to your guns with Best Buy! I purchased an iPod, 15GB, at Best Buy about 8 months ago. I don't remember why, but I got $30 off on the price, so I paid $269 instead of $299 for a full, complete, iPod. About 5 months after she received it, the unit...

    HOT! *DEAD AGAIN; SOLD OUT!* Logitech Wireless Xbox Controller $26.95 FREE SHIPPING

    Anyone know if this will mess around with the signal of a Linksys 54G router, like a 2.4GHz phone will? :) That's the deal maker for me!

    PowerBook G4 Aluminum Owners! Help me out!

    Highly advise the use of Crucial memory. I've never had an issue with their memory, while I have, at work, with other brands. Crucial's customer service is top notch as well!

    Possible price mistake? 1gb 512x2 OCZ at Outpost $89.99

    You'd think, since this is an "error", that they'd be all over it and update their site, so their CSRs aren't taking calls about this all day, but it looks like their probably enjoying the free publicity. :-/ Its a shame too! I was going to order four sticks. Those would have been nice in...

    *NOT HOT* Overstock IPOD "deals"

    One note on the Best Buy plans. They only give you another iPod if you paid full price for it. I had price matched one and it started having issues right away after getting it home. Eventually it died and Best Buy deemed it should be replaced. They not only void out the rest of your...
