I am in the market of buying a SSD drive for my wife dual core laptop. Is the Intel 330 series 180GB SSD drive for $100 any good?

Yes, top of the line. They recently released the 340 series, which is contributing to this one being so cheap, but ~$0.50/GB is a good price for any SSD, even on sale, and Intel makes really good ones.
Great deal on the Agility 4 as well, but can't beat the Intel 330.

Anybody been to a Micro Center on Black Friday lately? I tried once about 5 years ago. I think I was about 2 hours early. It was dark and bitter cold. It looked like at least 200 people already camped out in line. I didn't even slow down, just looped around and went back home.
I know BF is usually extreme, but I had foolishly hoped it might be tamer there since they're not a huge chain and mostly advertise to customers. I live farther away now, and though I'd really like that Intel ssd too, I'm not sure it could be worth the $50 savings.

But one can buy online and pickup later right?

Many young people likes to wait out on these days. Many of them have sex while waiting. I have seen it happen.

Nobody waiting at midnight at MC has ever had sex, let alone in the line.

The Intel 3930K Processor is a great price at $400. That's cheaper than craigslist postings. Currently is $570 at the Egg

Item 328773 on page 24 for $1299 seems like a pretty good deal to me. Am I missing something?
Yep this add is not inspiring at all. Tiger Direct is better than this but i cant justify the drive to that store. Man, when is the Frys ad coming out!

It's really not a crazy screaming deal - I saw prices about $125-$130 for the 180gb. But it looks like a high quality drive, to me that's worth a premium over getting the cheapest per GB.
OTOH, you definitely won't have to get in line behind me on Friday now
