    Nero 5.5 (cd burning software) $7.80 shipped. DEAL might still be good.

    I received my disk last night and it has printed on the label that it was produced for distribution with a CD recorder hardware. That said, I had no problem installing and using it with my Ricoh DVD/CD-RW drive. It would seem to be a remarkable coincidence if this was packaged to work with my...

    Creative Nomad II Docking Station *In Stock* $19.99

    The most significant benefit over charging batteries in an external charger is that you can use the dock to top the battery up easily and avoid the rechargable battery from every running dry while in the player. There is some evidence that the Nomad II may permanantly malfunction after using...

    (Dead) Argus DC3200 digital camera 1.3 meg, 1.8" LCD, 8MB memory $79.99 or $54.99 AR at OfficeMax

    I bought one as a gift for my pre-teen neices, so they can send digital photos to our grandmother's ceiva digital frame. It arrived today. Two words...fixed focus. I had no idea just how much worse things could get than my 1.3 MB Olympus 360L. I hope the kids will like it. -w

    all you can rent dvds for 20 a month - MODIFIED

    I have just recently come back to Netflix for a while after having tried them two years ago. The attraction for me is there enormous collection. I am able to get classics like the Laurel and Hardy and Buster Keaton, as well as movies I remember from the 70's, but can never find in the video...

    Norton Systemworks Pro 2002 7.99

    Fred, I think that you are correct - for XP partitions you need to use Ghost 2002. Check out www.radified.com for a good guide to Ghost that comes to the same conclusion. -w

    Warm? 32mb Nomad II Refurb $60

    Acedaddy323, The software CD that I received with my Nomad II would not work and I had no difficulty in getting Creative to send me replacements by Fed/Ex (at their expense). I suggest you might want to try the same. I called the toll-free sales line and all they wanted to know was my serial...

    DEAD: TIGERDIRECT SUX -- Creative Nomad II 32mb Open Box $49.99

    Persistence pays friends! On my fourth call with TigerDirect I was able to convince the CSR that they had to send me a 32MB SM card. From all of the various postings that TigerDirect could never be a hot deal because they are scum, I was suspicious and I kept a copy of the page describing the...

    Norton Systemworks PRO 2002 $13.95 + 4.95 S&H

    Ordered on Jan 10, still waiting, although order status recently changed to "sent." I am trying to be paitient... I noticed the Radified Guide to Norton Ghost states that Ghost 2002 requires a serial number to restore, while Ghost 2001 did not. (If you have Ghost 2001 and are not using XP...

    Canadians: Free month of DVD rentals @ HollywebDVD.com!

    0sully, Thanks for the post! They had an obscure DVD that I am wanting to see, so this deal is smoking for me. The code appears to work for US addresses, but I will have to see what the delivery time is like. As I recall from growing up in Canada, the only consistency that Canada Post has...

    DOD Iomega CLIK! PC Card Drive only $18.95 - hot?

    Thanks FishDaddy! Your timing was perfect, I was about to buy one at staples B&M that is marked as clearance priced at $40 - without any pretty case. This was hot for me as I have plenty of Clik! disks for my digital camera, but this allows me to not take the enormous docking station...
