    Vizio or Element 42" Plasma HDTV $849.99 no rebates

    I would stay away from the Element. Picture quality on the LCDs blow. I would assume the quality on the Plasmas do as well. This is not to mention the build quality of these either. This is the cheapest quality crap Circuit City sells. This stuff is along the lines of the following cheap...

    Circuit City "Restructure" - Round 2

    The information about firings is supposed to be confidential. Obviously people are going to talk. I'm sure they'll have a press release of some sort tomorrow. All part of the North Star initiative. 5-year plan to restructure the company. Sure seems to me like the corporate SOBs are trying...

    Mario Party 8 (Wii?), $39.99 CC or fry's

    If you're talking about Circuit City's website then it won't tell if they have any in stock at the store. Video Games cannot be ordered online for in-store pickup. They will only ship it to you. I think the only thing that doesn't apply to is Guitar Hero. Your best bet is to call the store...

    2006 Intel Purchase Program deal announced

    My roommate received his today and I should receive mine tomorrow. Came with 64-bit and 32-bit NFR versions. There is a different cd-key on the back of each of the sleeves the DVDs come in. Does that mean both are activatable? (Is that even a word?)

    Antec p180 silver @ Best Buy for $79.99

    Received mine and as far as I can tell, it's the 1.1. My understanding is that with the vented slot covers, clips for the middle hd cage for a 120mm fan, and a coupla other things that I probably didn't notice, that mean's it is not 1.0, right?
