    Coupon Codes?

    << << You are probably one of those people who thinks that anyone who criticizes the brain-dead moron who currently occupies the white house is a traitor and should be taken out and shot, or at least deported >> Comments like that can land you in jail courtesy of the FBI and Secret Service...

    << 1) Criticizing the moderators does not belong in the Hot Deals forum; if anyplace, it belongs in the OT forum. And also, you were not just "criticizing" the moderators, there were blatant insults. You conducted yourself in a very childish and simple manner in the post, and if you were trying...

    << Geesh, if you dont like it so much, then leave. There are goods and bads to everything, not just Anandtech Forums. If you don't like it, leave (I'm sure the mods will see to that). It is custom to usually read the forum rules before making a post, and if the person had they wouldn't have...

    Coupon Codes?

    << A couple of stores told Anand to put a stop to it or they would sue, so coupon codes are now banned. Though your question would have been better off in Off topic or forum issues for future reference, because this is not a hotdeal. >> So??? Let them go ahead and sue. This is still the...

    You know, I really resent a bunch of pencil-necked, pimple-faced dorks (the moderators) telling me what I can and cannot post on this forum. Coupon codes are widely available at many websites, so it is rather ridiculous to prohibit them here. All you clueless clowns that jump all over anyone...

    What's the fuss? P4 1.6 o/c'ed to 2.3 still probably not faster than comparably priced AthlonXP

    << << You AMD diehards just don't get it. >> Eh, that's not it. I just care about what's faster. Then name stamped on the chip makes no difference. I still have a celeron 366 -> 550 system here right next to my Athlon. I just hadn't seen any evidence of the P4 being faster...maybe...

    What's the fuss? P4 1.6 o/c'ed to 2.3 still probably not faster than comparably priced AthlonXP

    You AMD diehards just don't get it. The Pentium 4 Northwood is not an inferior product. It has a 512k L2 cache and .13 micron technology. It uses much less power and runs much cooler than the Athlon XP. There have been many comparison benchmarks of the Athlon XP versus the Pentium 4...

    $75 to $175 off BOSE speakers & systems at Crutchfield Electronics

    Well, since everybody else has crapped on this thread, I guess I will too. As has already been said, Bose speakers are overhyped garbage. You can get much better speakers from Acoustic Research, Klipsch, or Polk Audio for less money.

    Will Crucial Ever offer PC 2700

    LOL. Micron has certainly made mistakes, but not offering RDRAM certainly wasn't one of them. In fact, Micron announced PC2700 (DDR333) several months ago. You can read about it here -- Micron Technology announces PC2700 DDR SDRAM
