Panasonic 50" LED 1080p x 3 $200


picked them up yesterday at wal mart, was afraid they weren't gonna that great of a monitor or be limited in connectivity or something, but i'm actually impressed... 2 x hdmi, 2x RGB, and 1 SVGA, up close it looks almost as good as my 63" Mitsu DLP (much more expensive monitor)

Had no idea walmart had panasonic. I thought bestbuy had the panasonic. Which one is this at walmart?

I believe I saw one in the Harbor Freight ad. It might have been a miter saw though, as I was just kind of skimming it. If you're not looking for something to pass down to your kids, their tools are decent for the cheap.

NICE for a 1080!

can u replace the 16gig eMMC w/a real ssd?
and can u load Win7 Pro on this?

I believe the storage is soldered on. It doesn't really matter since it's for my daughter to replace her 2yr old Samsung Chromebook. She'll have plenty of storage space with 64gb SD card, 2tb passport drive, and 2tb Google Drive.

No Win7 on the Chromebooks. If you want Windows, there are plenty of competing Windows with Bing laptops.

The beauty of the Toshiba Chromebook 2 laptop is the 1080p IPS screen, 9 hour battery life, ChromeOS, and zero fans.

thx.

13.3" 1080p for $280 sounds amazing.

I want something small w/more screen space.
beats my 11.6" 1300x768 netbook.

and smaller/lighter than my 15.6" 1900x1080.

the other sweet spot is 12.5" 1440 x 900.

two wigs, one gold filling, an android phone, and a mismatched pair of sneakers. So far so good. Just waiting for a few more obese human dumptrucks to fight over TV's to scoop some more loot.

This may be the first Black Friday that I don't buy anything at all. I usually at least load up on games from the past year but since I still have a 360/PS3 there isn't a lot of that to be had. Considered a new gen console but can't decide which I'd rather have. Oh well, more money to blow in Vegas a month from now.

I've been wanting to get rackmount cases to convert my workstations to rackmount so I can put them in my server rack (got long USB/audio/DVI cables going down to it). Also want to build another machine to use for gaming/Windows, or use my current one for gaming and use the new machine as my main. That way I don't have to keep dual booting back and forth.

Had all the stuff in my cart, then decided to wait. Probably will see what the sales are like on Boxing day. My company got bought out so I don't want to spend money till I know my job is safe.

Though I'm still debating on at least getting the two rackmount cases as a start to at least convert my two machines. One of the machines drives the other 2 monitors but I could use that one as my primary Linux machine and just go back to dual monitors. At least for now. Hmm decisions decisions.

I scored TWO free Costco cookbooks, I own all you fuckers.

So, there is this new thing, it just came out, it is called 'the Internet'. It contains all information ever put in a cookbook, and is free (although, connecting to it might cost some money). Yeah, nobody is envious of your physical book. You brag about getting magazines delivered as well?

My brother asked me to get him one, so I got him 2. Quit being jelly, hater. D:

A pizza and an iced cappuccino.

Traffic was surprisingly light, given what day it is.





(I normally stay home for Black Friday, so there.)

No real deals here in Canada...
