This isn't very hot, IMO. The Samsung upconvert HDMI DVD players go for $59 at Fry's when on sale these days.

It wouldn't be such a big deal, except I have been e-mailing them for over 3 months about it. And I don't even use the phone much anymore since I'm at work like 11 hours a day. So I think something like Skype would suit me better is all. Really, the rewards thing is nothing huge, but it is...

Regarding their rewards service, don't hold your breath on getting anything. The website said that I had enough points to get a $25 Best Buy card. So I try to order one and get a website error. So I try again, another website error. When I go to try again some time later, it says I've been...

Yeah, though since it's at Washington, and Washington hasn't lost a home game yet this season, and Philly has only won one, and they both have the same record going in... I'd put my money on Washington even though they've had some pretty embarrassing losses lately.

The Star Wars trilogy LDs... And apparently he's redoing Episode I already :/

CC has Episode I in their ads (at least in Chicagoland) for $9.99, so take advantage :)

Compgeeks has been known to sell these for about the same price almost all the time. I got one for $10 from them, and usually if you buy enough stuff at once, the shipping kinda goes out of the picture because they charge quite fairly on shipping by weight. Usually can get PC cases for about...

How many people in how many different threads are gonna talk about Episode II at TRU for $9.99 like that's something to brag about? (I got it for $8.96 on release day at WM) :P

Is there anything special about this set? It seems like it's just the 10 "special edition" sets that you can usually find for $10 apiece in the ads every other week. Then all you do is 10% PM those to somewhere else and get all 10 for $90 :) Just not sure if the Nemesis special edition is in...

I tend to agree. I think someone is bound to have it for $10 on release day. CompUSA used to always have big releases like this for $10 advertised. Even so, almost all of the stores in the Sunday ads have it for $15-$16. BTW: Some Wal-Marts had Episode II for $8.96 (10% pricematched from...

Yes... except Celeron-Ms are faster than any Pentium III in existence. 1.4GHz with 1MB of cache, not to mention a tuned up core? You're nuts. The chip is not the problem with your sister's Dell. It could be a variety of things.

This set doesn't even support true 5.1 surround. It doesn't have a digital input to receive a 5.1 signal. I worked at a Wal-Mart last year and they sold this model and I even bought one and returned it instantly once I figured that out. Older Durabrand models do have Dolby 5.1 optical input...

If you're worried about the boards becoming ridiculously expensive, you could buy one now--ASUS has already named two boards as being compatible with the adapter. Both of them are available at Newegg for less than $100 each. They wouldn't dare charge over $50 for the adapter, so you're still...

I'd say it's probably one of its weaker points, but to get comparable performance to an A64 in most apps, it would have to have a fairly decent FPU setup. There are some apps where the P-M gets beat down by the P4 and A64, but for the power usage, it's quite nice. It's probably no worse on...

That's all well and good, but you're talking apples and oranges. P4s are Netburst- an architecture made to scale well. Dothan and Banias are the opposite: they are made to have high IPC, and NOT scale well- this is intentional. Intel wants to keep power low, and to do so, they are VERY strict...
