I'm still alive (positive open order sign). Bought 2.

Hi I ordered 2 of these systems a couple of days ago with the 3.2c at a 2.6c price and a 10% off coupon, so I got the 2 systems for $1076.40 minus $200 rebate + tax. The question is, is that I mistakenly ordered them "no-os Linux" instead of "no-os Microsoft" What is the difference? Also, I...

I believe they are the same as for the C82, which they have.

Oh, I got the $298 version. I don't know if the $288 version plays MP3s, or any of the other exact specifics of it.

:D !JBL Home Theater The above link is for a REFURBISHED !JBL home theater system. It includes a remote, receiver, DVD changer, 5 satellite speakers, and a subwoofer. I ordered it last week, and hooked it up yesterday. It sounds great, and was a great price. Also, the 5 disk DVD player...

Got 750 beans for it. I figure I made an easy $500 or so on this when all the dust settles. The guy got it and already left positive feedback. Last year, I got in on that staples $500 HP laptop (It was like 1100 minus coupon, 2 rebates, and a free floppy rebate) so I did not need the extra...

Dude. The $3000 is a loan, not a purchase. You aren't paying 3K for a laptop, but interest on 3K, plus the ability to use the 3K for something else. Basically, it boils down to 10.99% - 5% or 6% of 3K which is about $180 for the laptop. Definitely worth it.

Don't know, haven't opened it up. I already have a laptop with similar specs, and was going to eBay this. (no flames please)

FWIW I got my free laptop in the mail on Friday.

New update. I called and activated my card. They stated that the laptop would be 4-6 weeks, and that they cut a check for $5000 for the balance transfer. All is going according to plan....

FYI everyone, I was not invited, and I received my credit card in the mail today.

1) Not true about using unique ID. You can call the number. I did, and hopefully will be seeing my laptop in a few weeks. I did not have an invitiation. If you scour their website, they say: I can't find my Invitation Number. Can I still accept online? If you can't find your Invitation...

Here is a deal for a free laptop, just as long as you sign up for this cred card and transfer $5000 into it, and hold $3000 in the balance for a year, at 10.99% or so. go to http://www.4mylaptop.com for details, and call 1-888-826-5022 You can see the HP press release here...

1) My title is NOT misleading. You can modify your ata/100 controller to a RAID controller for free, if you got in on that other deal. Yes there is risk, but there is also risk with purchasing with a credit card over the internet, not getting rebates, etc etc etc. 2) RAID has multiple...

If you got in on the deal to get a Maxtor HD and Fast Ultra ATA/100 controller from staples, here is a link to convert your controller to a RAID controller, free. Japanese conversion of U100 to FT100 http://www.kurabu.co.jp/yobara/yossy/kai/ul100-01.html This is in Japanese, so you will need...
