I bought some blank DVD-Rs from Wal Mart (30 for 14.97) and Apple sent me a $10 Off $99 coupon so I bought an airport extreme card for my iMac G5 (Paid $89 with Edu Discount). Now I can put my router in the utility room and move my iMac anywhere I please (not tethered to the nearest cable outlet).

Got a lexmark printer x2230 all in one at walmart for $77. Is this a good printer?
Im thinking should have spent $20 extra for the HP all in one at FS.

sub sounds pretty good for a 6.5" woofer. i'd like to find out the box's construction.

I got my Nikon at simonscamera. Good price, no PST, and friendly service. Me and another RFD guy got a free bag and filter out of it because we bought two.

Panasonic DVD-S97 player. Looks amazing @ 720p on my projector. I got it for $340 thanks to a mistake made by FS (don't ask).

I got the Velbon Ultra Maxi tripod, it's also a ultra lightweight, but full size pod.

I want back to Advance Electronics in Winnipeg after I found out they dropped the price of the Canon G5 to $549. They credited back $50 to my credit card!!! :cheesygri

P.S. I turned around and donated the money to the Red Cross for the victims of the tsunami. Oh well...easy come...easy go...

Used some Boxing Week deals with Dell plus my EPP with the company I work for and haggled with a sales associate for quite a good deal on a brand new Dell Inspiron 700m.
