    I got a postcard which said they did not recieve a packing slip with my rebate request, which was not true. The rebate status at rebatestatus.com was in my "business" name, it said my Customer Account Number and Order Number are not valid. I enclosed the original packing slip, how could...

    GC68 not from SVC

    I just received 2 GC68s from SVC and was curious about how the finish on the bottom affected CPU temps. I lapped one GC68 to a mirror finish and left the other one stock. I then ran the Sandra burn in wizard for 20 iterations for each one while monitoring the temps. The test setup was a...

    19" True Flat Compaq P910 monitor. $239 shipped CDW.com

    CDW must have gotten some P910s returned because there was one waiting for me when I got home to replace the out of focus B Stock one I sent back. I haven't found anything wrong with this one. The P910 B Stock price is currently $139.68. This could be a warm to hot deal if you like to...

    19" True Flat Compaq P910 monitor. $239 shipped CDW.com

    My CDW account mgr, Dione, called today to tell me there were no replacements for my B Stock P910 that I RMAd. They would let me apply the amount I paid for the P910 towards one of their other monitors and they would not charge me shipping. What a deal! The B Stock monitor I received had been...

    19" True Flat Compaq P910 monitor. $239 shipped CDW.com

    I am also not happy with my P910 monitor; text is so blurry/out of focus in the middle of the screen that it is unusable. This is a B-Stock model. It was obviously returned after being opened. It's going back; I wonder what they will replace it with?

    Maxtor 80GB 7200/100 Hard Drive & CenDyne 32x10x40 CDRW for $80 AR @ Staples.com

    There are two separate rebates listed at Ben's site. This one from Maxtor and this one from Staples. Staples may accept a copy of the UPC for their rebate; it would certainly be worth an email request to Staples.rebates@parago.com. See post #13 here.

    HOT!!!!!! 256Megs DDR PC2100 $35, 512Megs DDR $92 Free shipping!!!

    How dare he admit his company had a pricing error! All of the bigger companies would just string you along for several weeks and then say they were all out of the product and didn't expext to have anymore. How does expect to succeed using tactics like that?

    BELKIN Desktop 10/100 PCI Network Card -- 95 cents [DEAL NOW DEAD]

    I just received my 10 nics from Dell on order #717519***. I ordered these with the shipping cost before I found out about the small business free shipping option. I'm still waiting for the other 5 nics I ordered through small business minutes later just for good measure.

    ECS K7S5A Motherboard w/AMD Duron 950 Boxed CPU for $99 @ Outpost.com

    I had the "no video" problem with a refurbed K7S5A MB from Newegg. I was using an AMD approved (Athlon to 1G) PS with a Duron 750 and no tricks from the OCworkbench forums would get it to work. I RMA'd it back to newegg. No problems with the rev 5 MB now. I believe ECS is up to Rev 7 now...
