Dead-OOS-Officemax has the RCA CC-9370 Digital Camcorder for only $299.98, save $400! Item 20152870

I was able to add this to my cart, and was just about to purchase it, when I remembered I should see what they are on Ebay, as it gives some sense as to the products worth, and the deals HOT status. I saw that there were a few of the same model at 279.95 with $12 shipping that got no bids...

VoiceStream Family TIme Deal....includes 2 free Nokia 3390 phones.

That deal doesn't sound too bad, but you really have to see how the service is in your area. I tried their service a little while ago and couldn't get reception anywhere near my house. It was dead for like a block radius, and I'm in the city. So take that into consideration when looking at...

Antec SX-830 and ECS k7s5a Power prob

Thanks for the tips. I will try that some time this weekend I hope. I did rip out the power supplay and try it on my main machine and it works so I know it's not a dead PS. I have all the risers under teh board and all screws are on their corresponding "circles" so I don't think there's any...

case and vendor suggestions?

I'm building an Athlon System for someone, and just wanted suggestions on a case. It's going to be a family machine with some gaming, so I'm probably not going to be doing any major oc'ing. I was thinking of just getting the Cheapo case that's on sale at Newegg, $45 with PS and $15 shipping...
