    I bought one from Fry's B&M about a year ago. I got the $120 rebate in the usual 6-10 weeks.

    Forum Acronyms

    Is there a thread giving definitions to forum acronyms? I figured out most of them, like B&M, AR, FAR, etc, but can't figure out YMMV and LMAO. I can guess that YMMV means based on the context it is used in, but I want to now what it stands for.

    LOTR - Return of the King (Extended Ed) for $17

    Actually the coupon is good for all three of the LOTR movies. Also, there is no limit, so you can buy as many as you want, and resell them, if that's your thing. Plus get the free slipcase ($3 s/h) from New Line and you'll have the complete boxed set EE trilogy.

    EPSON R200 Refurbished Printer from Outpost $69.99/$75 Shipped Ground

    I am deciding between the R200 and the C86. Does printing directly on printable media (I'm thinking of buying printable Taiyo Yuden) look more professional (i.e look more like store bought dvds) than printing stick-on glossy photo stomper labels?

    Is the 9700 Pro better than the 9600 Pro? I noticed the 9700 Pro won Tom's Hardware award in 2002. That seems like a long time ago, is the 9600 that old as well? Did the 9700 Pro come out before the 9600? I noticed on ATI's website that the 9700 is listed on the bottom (as if it's been...
