I just got an e-mail from TigerDirect.com where I bought one of my computers. They have a 48 hour sale on an Acer laptop for $399...no rebates. I
thought I'd post this in case anyone is in need of a new comp.clevohardcore - 5-9-2007 at 10:10 AM
My bank account willnot agree with me but I think when the time comes for a new computer I may get a MAC. I have to look into it more but thats the
way its looking.BDx13 - 5-9-2007 at 10:30 AM
that's a great deal, but i'd be concerned about the specs being able to really support vista.JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 5-9-2007 at 10:34 AM

I agree but they'll at least give you another 512mb for $24. Still a great deal on something the average person would be happy with.
also, the next computer I buy will also be a Mac.BDx13 - 5-9-2007 at 10:39 AM
tiger direct is know for some CHEAP prices.
it kinda sucks too, cause for what i do, i really should have a new pc for testing purposes, but i just can't bring myself to buy one right now. too
many vista variations and concern over whether a low-end machine ($500) would really run well.

good deals, dak.
juan, if you're looking ask about hardware that has 802.11n - it's the next version of wireless. it's faster and it's a little more future-proof.
the final specs haven't been released, but almost everyone has "draft 802.11n" hardware now, meaning their equipment is based on the almost-finalized
spec.JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 5-9-2007 at 03:44 PM

I have this same router now. Works way better than the Netgear thing I had before.DAK - 5-9-2007 at 04:10 PM
Yeah, i haven't had any problems with the router. Most of the newer notebook have the built in wireless LAN 802.11b/g.morgan - 5-10-2007 at 01:15 AM
I just built a new computer about 2 weeks ago. not counting monitor and keyboard and such I spent about $1300. And now I'm a broke ass white boy. Oh
well at least I got a cool computer out of it.
Is anyone else running vista? If so what do you think so far?
