Patriot memory is fine. I have a few of them for my cameras and phones in the past and they worked well.

I was able to build a very decent PC from using parts from NCIX sale for about $750. It would cost me $850 or more if the stuff is on regular price.

And it took around and hour and a half to get through the queue... slowly but surely. All that for headphones that arent even for me. Stupid friends with Dec b-days!

I picked up that drive as well (at least I tried to? It says at the bottom of the page that it's merely an "offer to purchase"? wtf?) and a Samsung DVD writer for $14, as well as the 18.5" LG monitor for $69 (parents lol)

thinking of getting a cd/mp3 deck from visions, anyone know how much they usually charge to install or if they'll even do it while it's that busy?

Order it; it says you have the option of pickup and they send you an email 3 hours before store hours or some shit for confirmation. I ordered the studio ones and they sent me that e-mail saying I can pick up.

Because let's say to handle the Boxing Day load, they need 200 web servers, but for the remainder of the year, 10 web servers are more than enough... it's not cost effective for them to put another 190 web servers into production just to handle the load for a few hours.
