Sadly, there are a handful of times I really wished I had a USB floppy drive. No way I'm going to give up a drive bay or get a laptop with a floppy drive but still ... there's never a drive when you actually need one. Nice to have an external USB guy laying around. Still, not gonna camp out for it

The E6750 deal isn't too hot by itself, you'll save maybe $30 after taxes compared to Newegg.
The 2gb OCZ ram is a real nice deal though- you will save $20 OTD, and then about $60AR. So if you wait in line for that, and grab the E6750 deal + whatever other items you need it becomes worthwhile I suppose. The E6850 deal is great though because you'll save about $80AR. Both deals are good overclockers according to Newegg reviews. Any other thoughts? Too bad no good video card deals (8800GTS? )

Two deals that are interesting but overlooked, the Belkin 1500VA UPS for $50 AR, and the Canon Laser Copier/Printer for $30 AR.

I know that many people are spoiled by the APC units that were on sale awhile back at OD, and the clearance deals on the APCs at BB, but that is still nothing to sneeze at for a 1500VA. Considering the fact that we give lots of green to deals like $30 for a measly 500VA or 550VA UPS, $50 AR for a 1500VA should be equally exciting.

And the Canon copier is a nice deal, despite the huge rebate, because unlike some of the past clearance deals on laser copiers, this one actually has a USB port and can be used as a laser printer. Many of the laser copiers I've seen posted about are copiers only, with no printer functionality.

I noticed them too... But I doubt those will make it on to outpost.com for the same price... If they do, I'll get a couple of them to add to the 2 APCs I got from CC a month ago.

all this consumerism is disgusting
what is wrong with a NO shopping day, or at least a day of thanksgiving where we do something for others

I hear Ted Bundy's shack is available if you want to write a manifesto or something.

The pdf appears to be not only todays ad, but tomorrows as well.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks.

Man, this is going to get ugly when the store opens and the horde descends upon 3822487. I hope they get out vouchers for this or should I just start camping out at noon today? To those who are lucky, watch your carts closely, someone else might steal it from you...

Some poor techies are getting woken up and driving into the office as we speak.

OK. Glad it was just that... trying to get that $79 Sony Camera.

It shows as "call for availability", which usually is Fry's-speak for out of stock (for online orders at least).
