    ** HOT HOT HOT ** ... IBM Thinkpad G41 P4 3.06 Ghz Notebook $999 + FREE printer !!!

    Perhaps the T series are, but this has 128mb ram, a cdrom, integrated video, and no wireless. Those certainly are not "advanced features". For someone carrying a laptop around on business, the T-series is ideal, but for someone needing a desktop replacement, this is not a bargain. A few days...

    Dell DJ $149 for 15gig and $199 for 20gig no coupon w/ free shipping

    A few weeks ago, the DJ15 was ~130 and the DJ20 was ~180. I don't think there was free shipping on that deal, so add in 10 bucks for shipping.

    TVs (CRT and Proj) and two laptops 25% off at Sams St. Louis only

    Heads up, I was at the Sams near Manchester and McCausland (which is closing soon in favor on a new location on Hanley) and saw that a lot of good TVs are 25% off, including the Phillips widescreen HD CRTs, some 32" HDs, and a few projections. Some of these are Display Item Only, maybe all of...

    Can the school bar you from taking AP tests?

    So what if they do? Also, at our school, we were allowed to take tests that didn't have associated classes (we didn't have classes for all of the tests). So, in that case, you certainly could take one without being in a class.

    128m mp3 player 31.99 shipped

    "The biggest - and most disappointing - surprise: the headphone jack will NOT take a standard 1/8" headphone plug. It appears to take a 3/32" micro plug instead." From a review on newegg.....just an FYI for people thinking about a purchase.

    Do you think this lawsuit is justified?

    Many folks have.....just not this one. In fact, her lack of real problems allowed her to head straight to the attorney's office.

    science buff question: two balls of equal volume and different density...

    Not exactly, it is a notational difference. Force is a vector quantity; in that notation, assuming the gravitational force is taken to be the positive direction, then F_friction will be negative, because it is in the opposite direction relative to the gravitational force, so you will want to...

    science buff question: two balls of equal volume and different density...

    Right. Another way to say this is that the gravitational force applied to the more massive object is greater than the gravitational force applied to the less massive object, as shown above (F=GMm/r^2), giving F=km. Also, by F=ma, a=F/m. Combining these equations, a_grav=km/m=k, so...

    Fed Chief Greenspan: Tax Cuts spurred Economic Recovery

    An FYI for the person who asked the original question: Greenspan is a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Each member is appointed by a president to serve a 14 year term. In Greenspan's case, he was appointed (by Reagan) as a replacement when the previous chairman stepped down...

    Twin cities is Minneapolis, MN and St. Paul, MN (I think), and they are called the twin cities because they are right next to each other.

    Just got the call for 2nd job interview UPDATE: Just finished it

    At least you are meeting with engineers - in my experience, they are always easier to interview with than the HR people. Rather than answering questions like "what kitchen utensil would you be and why" you get to talk about relevant tech topics. I would suggest preparing a good sized list of...

    posted again due to lock by loser : Express men 1MX dress shirts, all on sale for $19.99!

    Anyone ever find out if this is at all stores? They have "sales" listed on the website, but it is for polos, which I think may be outdated.

    Shall I really shell out $3300 for the T42p?

    I think you are missing his point a little bit. His doesn't have to last three years, because with the $1700 he saved, he can buy a new one in a year and a half with up to date technology. Or use it to buy an extended warranty, plus a nice LCD monitor for home use, a 7200rpm drive, plus...

    Express men 1MX shirts, all solid colors on sale for $19.99, down from $49.99, SMOKING!

    JRKIO is missing the boat. Here he is complaining about how overpriced "popular" stores are, when there is a great deal right above. Considering the crappy dress shirts at Sam's are $15, its hard to see how a person looses anything by purchasing a quality one for $20. If you can't get over a...

    are you happy with your 600m?

    My parents have a 600m, and it is a pretty nice laptop. I would say build quality is comparable to other laptops in its price range: Compaq, HP, etc. Its not really fair to compare it to the T-series, as the 600m is nearly half the price when Dell is having a good deal.....

    Spent over $500 on books this semester

    did you buy on half.com or amazon resellers or something like that? If not, you should start, its a lot cheaper than campus bookstores. Gotta watch and make sure the right version is specified though!

    Need boxes for a move.. best place to go asking?

    I used to work at Sears, call before you go and ask for the receiving department. Tell them what you need and when the best time is to come in, and ask them to save you some. Usually if you get a nice associate, they will hold some for you. The reason I say call first is a lot of large...

    Pedro Martinez vs. Roger Clemens

    What about Pedro's performance in big games? It doesn't matter how low his season ERA is if he can't do it in the clutch, and did anyone see the ALCS last year? Pedro lost it when the team really needed him. Clemens and the Yankees won a bunch of world series titles. Even if Pedro was...

    Can you fight a traffic camera?

    Ask a cheap traffic lawyer about it. For speeding tickets, a lawyer often can get a ticket reduced to non-moving and save the hit on permanent record. Usually doesn't save any money due to the lawyer cost, so unless the ticket actually affects the permanent record, might as well just pay up...

    Should I get an extended warranty?

    Best Buy's definetly covers the battery, I used to work there. Its one of the biggest selling points. I have no idea if CC's does or not, but if it doesn't, I would head somewhere else. Especially if you plan to use your laptop for 3-4 years, the warranty is a good value, as you can replace...
