    VisionTek 6564 GF3 Ti 200; under $85 after cpns and MIR (more, if taxed)

    << I got one of these at the Best Buy black Friday sale. I definitely like :D the card, very stable and and an excellent overclocker (your mileage may vary). I'm still waiting patiently on the rebate though :|. >> Funny you mention this, as I had the same problem. I checked...

    Chuck E. is @ it again! 100 FREE Tokens.

    << God I hate that place...but my kids love it. >> Hehe, that place is about a thousand times better that it was when I dragged my parents to it. The pizza is now edible and the urine smell is almost gone. It is a little unnerving to see all these little kids walking around with plastic...

    Is a 1GHz CPU good enough?

    I'd take a 1GHz/133 P3 over any non-northwood p4 under 2 GHz. And I'd take a P III Tualatin 1.26GHz 512K over any northwood processor under 2Ghz. Remember that the p4 was designed to be cheap and clock fast, not to be a petter proc than the p3.

    Not hot, just a heads up. slot1,p3,1ghz,100fsb at CompGeeks for $189

    My MB can be set to 133 MHz, so I'm not going to take the hit. Thanks for the MWave link; the ones on sale locally only support up to 100MHz.

    Sony Premium Mini DV Tape $4.69!

    The switching-tape-brands thing was a big deal a couple of years ago (incomplete spec apperently) but was supposed to have been fixed back then. All the same, I stick with Sony media unless I'm on vacation and didn't bring enough blanks.

    Not hot, just a heads up. slot1,p3,1ghz,100fsb at CompGeeks for $189

    A 1Ghz FCPGA with a 133MHz bus and a slot adapter is about $40 cheaper. Any suggestions on slot adapters?

    WTF? Isn't Hi-Carbon Stainless Steel an oxymoron? I always thought it was either-or.

    LAST DAY 1/23! Meijer's (Midwest store like Wal-mart supercenter) $ off printable coupons

    The Meijer's in Indianapolis has the best produce of any major chain here; I'm suprised that others have had a different experience. Anyway, I used one coupon last night for some grocery shopping. Tonight I'm going to PM Best Buy on a hoover steam vac (they have it for $189) and add the coupon...
