I have a DELL S2309W that has a Samsung panel in it. It's colours aren't that great compared to the 4-year old DELL S-IPS panel (LG Phillips) I have at work.

DELL's panels come from other manufacturers, as do many company's panels.
You can try searching for your panel here: http://www.flatpanelshd.com/panels.php

I hope Summit Tools has a good Boxing Day sale, too. Waiting for all the flyers to show up.


BTW, I'm looking for a 1T (or larger) Western Digital external hard drive. Hopefully under 100 bucks. Gotta store my porn somewhere, LOL.
FS has Iomega 1TB external HDD for 79.99

on the other note what kind of deals are we going to see at Mopac on Boxing day? The drive from Richmond to Mopac is worth some money on its own so exactly what kind of deal can we get? I might go score some Autometer stuff and oil sandwich plate for my ride if it's gonna be worth the drive.

Thanks!

Costco has it for $219 right now, and would include the Costco 2yr warranty.

IIRC, Mopac sale is 20% off everything in the store......... something like that, but not 100% sure on the discount.

Can someone who's been to one recently confirm this?

edit: read the email, man i hate the "too low to show" thing, it's such a gimmick sometimes.

Perhaps, but most of the sales guys are pretty good - at least to me. I've never had a problem with them.

They know their stuff and they''re at the track themselves and they're also big sponsors of MRP. Not like those businesses that never give back to the community. Nuff said........

price-protect != price match.

Price protect, meaning to buy the item at regular price before the sale starts, then to head down on boxing day to ask for money back since the price of the item is lower due to the sale.

i'd be willing to bet it's almost impossible to do that with doorcrasher items

or perhaps they hide all the doorcrasher items in the back until the the 26th...
