RALFFERS 0 #8 May 31, 2007 If you have a Micro Center it's the way to go...They usually got some good deals, and are the only story I know (bare in mind I don't know much) that has a 30 day return policy, instead of the normal 14. Doesn't matter if the item has been open or not. Tiger Direct is also a good place. If niether is near you, you could order online and still save money.Dialogue/commentary between Divot, Twardo & myself - "from your first Oshkosh when the three of us were riding to or from one of Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yardhippie 0 #13 May 31, 2007 I have an older version of this one High point: It's a Sony. Firewire ports for dasiy chaining devices, or just a fast connection. Its fast for just over $100! The Nero package is good, and for about $35 (I think) you can upgrade the suite and have music ripping, and some other stuff. Ive made 50 or 60 full to short length DVDs, and lord only knows how many music, data, or back up CDs Ive made.Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WatchYourStep 0 #17 May 31, 2007 Well true it does state: Equally sad is the fact that some unscrupulously thirsty jumpers will shamelessly try to "weasel" a case of beer out of a jumper for an inauspicious event. However it also states: This list is not to be construed as exhaustive. So I think that's beer Nice video by the way. Is that Ben Harper on the 1st song, I can't quite get it.
