    WD 320GB SATA 8MB Cache 7200RPM (WD3200JD) $140.00 free shipping

    If your drive shipped without the jumper, that's the default and it means that SSC is off. If you jumper the pins, that will turn SSC on. If the drive shipped with the jumper, that means that removing it will enable SSC. Dumbest thing I've seen in awhile...

    Advent 27" HDTV ~$396 + tax shipped from bestbuy.com

    This is a 4:3 set, though, right? That's probably why it doesn't get more attention. HD Ready, but IMO if it's not a widescreen tube it's just barely HD. This would be good if you have a lot of 4:3 DVDs and a progressive player, tho.

    Hot! Henckels Five-Star 9-Pc Knife Set w/Block, was $579, now $179!

    I've never seen a Henckels knife corrode for any reason. Of course, never put good knives like these in the dishwasher and dry them when you're done. The handles on the 5-star are "contoured" to fit the hand better--I prefer the straight 4-star myself but most female cooks I know prefer the...

    Retail AMD Athlon 64 3200+ $299 at Newegg

    Agreed, both are good prices. I would expect the 3000+ to come down as well, though, now that the 3200+ has been reduced. $85 for an extra 512MB of L2 cache plus a HSF and warranty is definitely a good deal.

    Retail AMD Athlon 64 3200+ $299 at Newegg

    Best price I can find for the retail box is $415... Question is will this be a hot price after the new chips/prices are announced. Makes me glad I didn't jump on that 3000+ for $220, tho.

    $60 drop Today! Dell PowerEdge 600SC server P4-2.4GHz 40GB only $270 shipped after $100 rebate + $110 off + 5% coupon!

    According to that review over at 2cpu, the 600SC has 4 64-bit slots and 1 32-bit slot. Any sound/video card should work in the 32-bit slot. Any "universal" 32-bit card (with the key cut) will fit in the 64-bit slots, but using a 32-bit card there will slow down the entire PCI bus (including...

    HOT!! Crucial 512MB pc2700 $63.90 shipped

    I think that page at Mushkin is just saying don't use unbuffered 1GB sticks. Using a pair of 512s shouldn't incur the 50% performance hit that they observed.
