All I can say is that YOU GUYS ROCK! Not one, but TWO separate Anadtech Hot Deals members placed me on the Share the Love list for this collection. This will make one fantastic holiday gift. Thanks!!!! subpar

HOT deal! If you plan to Share the Love, please add me to the list :) j.mai@verizon.net Cheers!!

GoodToGo, The good thing with DVD+R is that if it says 4X, you should be able to burn at 4X. This is unlike the situation with many DVD-R drives which may or may not be able to burn 4X media at the stated speed. Not to crap on DVD-R, though. Each format has its advantages! Your drive should be...

Quite hot! Nice find. Gonna run out there tomorrow.

I'm interested in this card. However, I have heard the picture quality is not too hot and there is no raw output of video to *.avi. The hardware compression is enticing, but the quality issue is definitely holding this one back for me.

Man, is this for real? I just placed an order for pick-up...but it almost seems to good to be true. I've been burned by Circuit City rebates before.... subpar

This is a great drive. This drive is able to burn my particular batch of Kodak Ultima 80 CDRs (Silver-Gold) without C1 errors towards the end of the disc--a feat that my Lite-On 48/12/48 drives have been unable to accomplish. Overall, the media handling is rather robust and I give this drive a...

Looking at the benches on tomshardware--I'm pretty disappointed. The dustbuster is the worst part of the deal though; the noise is simply unacceptable to me. I guess the real hope at this point is in better drivers and a refresh of the hardware in the next quarter? There is no question it is the...

Oh man, this thread is cracking me up. That anti-foaming agent ingredient really scares me. I really (did) like the McNuggets, but after reading this, I think I'll pass. 50 pieces for $6.99 is a super hot deal. I can barely eat 12 or so of them without feeling sick. Thanks for posting this :)...

I think it was a mistake and they do state that they are not responsible for typographical errors. I guess we will have to see about this one. Edit: Mankster beat me to it.

Thanks so much for posting! I just tried this and they are crediting me with the difference. This is a super hot deal! subpar

Maxtor, Seagate, and Western Digital are all slashing their standard warranty to 1 year. Unless it is a premium item: http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=5392

Like many others, I miss HawkeyeNJ as well. His absence is truly missed here, whatever may have happened to him :( subpar

Rumsfeld intially wanted it axed, though the Army disagreed. Now that Bush has stated that the program should be killed off, the Army has muted its public opposition--it is up to Congress to decide. The free posters are part of an expensive media campaign by the manufacturer to keep the...

Damn, I wish I knew about this earlier. Gonna have to return my Radeon8500LE since I wanted a CRT+CRT setup. I'll just eat the shipping costs and the 15% restock fee. An expensive lesson in reading the really fine print before you order.
