For those that don't like to deal with rebates, here's a couple alternatives. Also, that Compusa Norwood card only has a 90 day warranty.

Jaton 6600 PCI Express 256 MB for 71.63 shipped. Two year warranty on Jaton.

MSI 6600 PCI Express 128 MB for 65.63 shipped.
Specs on MSI's website NX6600-TD128E Lite Three year warranty for MSI.

Sorry but, what am I missing here that makes this even warm?

This is the slowest of the 6600's. 300MHz/400MHz.
It is priced the same or higher than cards that are 2x to 4x as fast.
Notable deals in the past 30 days were the 7600GT for $50 AR, or the current 7600GT for $79 AR, or even the 7600GS for less than $70 after rebate.
The 6800GT and ATi x800's have also been AR priced at this level for the past 8 months.

Not crapping, just don't want to miss out on something that most think is a good deal, so need to know what makes this even luke warm?

If you had 3 days off (a long weekend maybe) and some parts to build a computer just to kill some time but don't have a video card, that is what could make this a good deal. But if you have the time and want to do your research you right Robs, there are better deals out there. I bought a 7600GS from newegg for about $60 AMIR just 3 weeks ago. Also if you are someone who doesn't need a fast video card, this could be a good deal, but Robs, if you are a gamer this card is not for you.
