Are you... are you buying this as a gift to your parents or something? Cause honestly, what do you need it for? It's roughly one of the crappiest desktop systems i've seen. And it doesn't even come with an LCD. It's a CRT

Not everybody needs a computer to play FEAR on.
 
I'll be at Costco at around 7 or so. But that's just because my 8-month daughter wakes up at 6:30 everyday anyway so we have to get up, too.
I'll be buying food for Sat. party and maybe will pick up a Crescent tool set which is $50 tomorrow.

Other than that - not going anywhere. It's a ZOO. And deals are crappy anyway.

Granted but if you're posting here you've got at least ONE computer at home. Don't get me wrong i'm not knocking eMachines btw. Only that people just seem to buy these things cause they're cheap, not necessarily useful.

its stupid. i had the misfortune of being at best buy last year... why camp out, stand in HOUR-long lines, to save a few bucks? is your time really that valueless?

I agree completely. While BB has a couple of goodies this year, I won't be going. Standing in line for 2 hours to give someone the money from my wallet doesn't make me feel good. I'd rather spend a few extra dollars.

A few hours? I live in a pretty small town (85K) and @ 3am the lines were packed.

People started lining up @ 2-3pm the previous day.

Sad stuff.

Camping? No. Waking up early, going to CC, then coming back and going to sleep? Yes.
Same here.
CC is sellling a printer for $99 that Newegg sells for $240.
I'll be getting one.

Just got back from CC. Think I got the last one they had.
That's $99 after $30 MIR.
