Back in stock: $59.95 after rebates: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10398736

We posted a deal a few days ago from Buy.com for $61 shipped after $20 rebate. It's now OOS though. There's a good chance they will get more in stock this week, and now there is an additional $10 rebate. Both rebates expire 9/9, so if it comes back in stock, you could possibly get it for $51 shipped after rebates.

If he can, I would strongly advise him to wait. According to many articles, such as this one: http://engadget.com/entry/1234000300057176/ later this month, Apple is going to announce flash-based iPod Mini's which will be smaller, have color screens and be basically around the same price. There should be 4GB, 6GB and 8GB models available. And if he still wants one of the current models, the prices on those should drop like a rock.

deals on xbox systems are pretty rare. buy.com has it for $142.49 after the 5% off coupon that expires today, but shipping is extra and puts it over $150.

Of course if you go through eBates they are stealing away our commission for all the help we've done :)

For now you can use any of these: http://www.gottadeal.com/images/back_to.gif http://www.gottadeal.com/images/logo.gif http://www.gottadeal.com/images/storelogos/gottadeal.gif http://www.gottadeal.com/images/gottadeal_88x30.gif I'll be making some new ones for both the main site and the upcoming Black Friday site in a few days, and I'll post a new thread with those when they are done.

There is a 40% off coupon now, but it's limited to certain configurations: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=12722

I used to just pick 2-3 items from each store and post regular deals on them, but decided to consolidate around 10 items per store into single deals to see how it goes.

Those must be in-store only as they still show $39.99 on the site. OfficeDepot had the 100 packs for $37.99 a few weeks ago. That was a nice deal.

I can't find them on either BB, CC, or CompUSA's site. I also wanted to look at them in person but I don't think they carry them.

Nope. Not related so you can get both. Buy.com basically just copied Amazon's $30 GC promo.

Even cheaper: Buy.com has just released a new 5% coupon good for ALL customers: http://www.gottadeal.com/Coupon/935 So that will save you $1.90 more bringing the cost down to $36.09 plus shipping :)

Also available in red at Irv's: http://www.irvs.com/image.php/itemno/AMC2-651/ Use code SUMMER10 for 10% off

I just added something telling what's included with each version. They could always buy the HD later on if they got the core system, so it's still possible to play the older games either way, but I see your point :)

Get details here: http://www.gottadeal.com/dell.php New Dimension & Axim coupons, and all the other coupons scheduled to expire tomorrow morning were extended another day.

One of the first LCD coupons in nearly a month...

Well your first post said the video card has DVI out, so you should be able to get pretty much any of those cards (I'd recommend the $99 Fusion since it's cheap), and then output from the video card to your TV with a DVI-to-HDMI cable. Your TV also has a VGA input, so you could use a DVI-to-VGA adapter and do it that way. Finally, you can get a DVI-to-component video adapter that works with ATI cards and connect that way. Since your TV's resolution is 1366x768 and only 23", you might not notice much difference between either of the 3 methods.

tell me: - what you are using the PC for (as a HTPC, as a regular PC but want to watch/record HDTV, etc...)? - is the Samsung LCD TV going to be the only display you use? - what video card is in the PC now?

Yes, HDMI is basically DVI with digital audio. You can get a relatively cheap DVI-to-HDMI cable. However you don't need the HDTV card to have DVI - you can output from your video card's DVI output just as easily. The MyHD card can give you DVI out if you buy the $75 daughtercard: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=201695304&loc= so you're getting close to $300 total. I'd rather buy the $99 Fusion card and use my video card's DVI output (or use the $200 difference towards a better video card if you need it)

Pretty much any of those cards will let you record HDTV. The other 3 I linked to are also compatible with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 so you can have an HD PVR that way as well.

The difference between the 2 Fusion cards is for $50 more you get AV-out (composite and S-Video only) and an IR remote with USB receiver.

if you just want to use the keyboard/mouse you don't need a "hub" but an "adapter" like this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006B7DB It uses the Widcomm BT stack, which is compatible with the Logitech set.

Cheap: http://www.gottadeal.com/DirectDeal/11676 Better but more $: http://www.copperbox.com/lite/popinfo.php?lc_code=FUSION-HDTV5-LITE Better but more $$: http://www.copperbox.com/lite/popinfo.php?lc_code=FUSION-HDTV5-GOLD Better but more $$$: http://www.gottadeal.com/DirectDeal/11489 Just depends what you want to spend.

The Wholesalers Club offer is a third-party seller and probably doesn't include free shipping

Also FYI, Best Buy is going to have that Linksys model also for $39.99 (no rebates) starting tomorrow if you just want to go pick it up.
