    ATI video card trade up deal

    Yeah, I noticed after I got all excited about it that it might not be as hot as originally thought. If I used it for my main box, right now it would be AGP. I really want an 8800 when I do rebuild the main rig in my sig. They just need to drop in price by a few hundred. The question...

    ATI video card trade up deal

    http://shop.ati.com/tradeup.asp So I'm hunting down a driver for an ES1000 for a server that keeps crashing. The above link was my first hit. So I looked at it since my old Ti4200 is in need of replacement if or when I go to Vista. It would appear to me that the Radeon X1650 Pro is...

    Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s $109.99 shipped

    I'm going 3 in raid 5 becuase 4 in a raid 10 is not in the budget. :( Why do I always estimate my costs lower than they are? UGH I ordered late yesterday and there was still free shipping on them and gotta love Newegg, they've already shipped.

    From the hot deals archives - 1998 -1999 - If you got in on free travelzoo stock read this

    Wow, I remember this. I never thought anything would come of it. I just did it for giggles. But....I used an old @Home.com email addy so the last email I had was 6 years ago. Being the pack rat that I am, I found the old emails dating from 9/99 to 5/00 and I found one with my password but...

    *DEAD* Dayton 12" $120 + free ship

    Wow....the 10" is no longer there. I bought one on BF weekend. It was one helluva purchase and I am so glad I got it then. I love the way movies and DTS audio sound so much better now. I keep thinking back to BF and now I am so happy that Velodyne at CC was a web only rebate. LOL...

    Canon A95 $196 OM YMMV

    More or less I was sharing the camera for the $196. The extras, well yes, they are brag and moan. They did sell an A95 for the price of an A85, a substutution like I've seen mentioned before.

    Canon A95 $196 OM YMMV

    LOL! I'm sure she would laugh. If I hadn't seen the pics from it and heard the whole story I would be skeptical too. I seem to recall seeing a thread either here or on FW about going to OM and seeing if they had a sale item in stock and getting an upgrade to the next model for the...

    Canon A95 $196 OM YMMV

    Office Max, Major YMMV, according to her, Salesman is a flippin bonehead hot deal. Her story, I only report it. YMMV since she was insistant and acted clueless as to things like discounts and model numbers. "I got a Canon PowerShot A95 for $196 and change, 209.94 with tax. Plus a...

    Hot deal - Kingston 1GB PC3200 $139.99 AR at Outpost

    Ahhh, then Fry's does indeed run different ads. Mine says "1Gb PC3200 Kingston HyperX DDR Memory; -184 Pin DIMM; -speed 400MHz; -Liftetime Warranty; $179.99 before $20 MIR." When I saw this, it led me to believe it was single stick but when I looked up 3746176 on Outpost it said 2 sticks...

    Hot deal - Kingston 1GB PC3200 $139.99 AR at Outpost

    Is this 2 sticks or one? I'm looking for a single stick. The Fry's ad in Fryday's paper makes it seem like single stick. I am so wishing I could find a hot deal on a single 1gb pc3200. I anticipate the Fry's ad weekly and there hasn't been one yet. I constantly read the forums and none...

    Fry's BF ad??

    I didn't see anything of the like that you mentioned in the OM ad. What caught my eye was the 16x DVD+-RW for $40AR. I got a $10 off $30 coupon in the mail and think I may use it on that drive vs the 8x DVD +-RW at Fry's for $30 straight up. Seems to me to make a bit of sense. I think I saw...

    Fry's BF ad??

    I did get an OfficeMax ad, haven't gotten to it yet though. Guess I have to hope my delivery gets here early tomorrow. I'm guessing Fry's (along with help from my friend in retail) BF ad will come out tomorrow as their usual ad is on Friday.

    Fry's BF ad??

    Ok, is it me, the inept Atlanta Journal-Constitution, or Fry's? To my utter shock and surprise, no full multi-page ad by itself. Only on the back of the Movies and Sports sections. And even then, there is nothing that I want. All I want for BF is a cheap 1gb pc3200. LOL! How can I plan my...

    Atlanta FRY's deals for 09/10 to 09/14

    I went to get that bundle over the first weekend, but ended up paying $269 for the K8N Neo (non-platinum) with that proc. I can't remember which board it was that was in that bundle, I think it was the K8T that comes with that $229 bundle. I got a cheap stick of ram with it and to my surprise...

    Fry's Atlanta Specials

    Last weekend I bought that A64 mb combo. Same one in fact for the same price. So far, solid as a rock. I also bought almost the same ram that is on the front page. The PC3200 PQI that is 60 A/R is I think the same stuff but may not be, different sku. I may have to clear that up since I...

    Ram question

    Thanks guys. I got to wondering about this after reading about it and what not. Or course when reading all the threads everywhere about ram and the threads everywhere about PSU's, I was questioning every part of my system. And then I got to thinking I'm not having any of the issues anyone...

    Ram question

    I posted this on another board but I need some more ideas. Seems Fry's has a stick for the same price with a rebate now and a lower CAS. But I'm still considering the Corsair. However I'm not sure what I should do. Just built a new rig....Athlon64 3000+ Newcastle, MSI K8N Neo, 512mb Cheap...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    Ok, I told her this post was still alive (she read it when I was going on about Fry's opening here). Quote from her...."Didn't they spend enough money? You all are worse than women buying shoes!" (like we understand the whole shoe thing to begin with) When will the LD sale be in the paper...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    I ended up going up there on Friday and buying some stuff only to return it on Saturday. I expected to see a better sale on Sunday but it was not as good. On Friday, I got an A64 2800 bare, 512 pc3200, gigabyte nf3 mb and fan for like $390. Had nothing to put it in so the excitement of a...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    Don't forget being able to PM some of the lowest on the real time pricing here. I got them to PM Monarch Computer on an Athlon 64. Fry's knocked $60 off their price to match them. Monarch is about 20 mins away with light traffic and have a retail front, so it is legit. It wasn't easy to get...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    Well, I ended up with a deal pretty much equal to Newegg prices. One advantage we may have in Atlanta is we have Monarch Computer is "just down the road" from Fry's. I noticed on the real time pricing last night they had the lowest. I had Fry's PM Monarch on an Athlon 64-2800 at 140......60...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    There is an ad....It is between the A section and C section. It's actually the B section. But I am a bit disappointed. I was hoping to find a cheap Barton combo or A64 combo but nothing of the sort. I don't know if the P4 3ghz combo for $179 is a good deal. I am not an Intel guy. There...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    Not sure of the real address, but I can tell you this much. If you go to GP Mall and go to the I-85 side (Sears, Hooters) and act as if you are going to go to GP Auto Mall in essence, Fry's is right there. Once you turn on Commerce (car dealer row), it is the first right when heading away...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    I just ran down to the gas station in anticipation of planning my Friday morning. Damn if this anticipation isn't like Black Friday. I took a look at today's AJC and there are no ad inserts included. Is this one of the full page ones or is it an insert that maybe the gas station does not...

    Fry's is coming to Atlanta! (actually it is here now)

    My question would be, what day should I buy the paper to get what is on sale on Friday? I doubt they would have anything in tomorrow's (8/22) paper. I just don't want to miss out on something hot and don't want to drive up there and be in a zoo for nothing hot. Anyone have any ideas? Might...
