    Get out of your Cingular Contract w/o ETF

    I'm a CSR at T-Mobile and I'll weigh in with my .02 cents. The ETF can be waived in only a very few select situations and raising the price of a feature is certainly not one of them. Which btw, we did raise our txt messaging from .05 to .10 cents at the beginning of the year. Txt messaging...

    MWAVE "ASRock 939Dual-SATA2" + Opteron 144

    Been thinking of this MB because I have a high end AGP card I don't want to rid of just yet. Got some pretty damn good reviews. No it's not perfect, but seriously considering this in the near future. http://www.ocworkbench.com/2005/asrock/reviews/939Dual-SATA2/g1.htm...

    Hot deal on acoustic guitar

    I agree SRGilbert. My first guitar was a Yamaha accoustic and is what I started taking lessons with. When I made the jump to electric guitar about a year later, my fingers were flying! It seemed so smooth. IMHO, it's easier to make the transition from accoustic to electric than vice versa...

    Hot deal on acoustic guitar

    Totally agree, and very good point. Just looking for suggestions from those more knowledgeable than I am on guitars that may fit my needs to help narrow it down. Will make trip to pawn shop within the next few days and also the local guitar shop to try a few out. Thanks

    Hot deal on acoustic guitar

    But of course if there is a KILLER deal or a big sound quality difference between a $250 model compared to a $350 model, I can go higher. My wife wants me to pick out a guitar for Xmas and I will feel guilty if I go too high.

    Thanks OP. I have just now begun looking for a guitar. Been out of the loop for a LONG time. So if you happen to run across a good deal on an electric guitar during your browsing, please LMK. It could be new or used. Also, if there are any other musicians around here, please throw some...

    Dell UltraSharp 2001FP/2005FPW Digital LCD = $554

    Interesting hearing about the Dell customer service experiences. Our first computer was a dell back in '97, and back then they were known for good customer service, and it was great from our limited experiences that we had to use it. I believe that is one of the main reasons Dell had such good...
