Be careful doing this. A lot of times graphic drivers for laptops are 'specific' for each company. Sometimes the one (we'll use HP as an example) the mfg makes is modified. By downloading the one from AMD (or Nvidia) you can screw up your device. Check the mfg's website before upgrading the graphic drivers. Sometimes the mfgs will upgrade their drivers (and sometimes you are stuck with no more upgrades the entire life). I've had several laptops over the years and have only had one company (Toshiba?) upgrade their drivers once more than the OEM version that came with it. That has been a while, so policies could have changed and you may get more updates now. Who knows?

With Windows 8 you don't need anti-virus anymore because it's built in. I had Microsoft Security Essentials w/ Windows 7 and when I upgraded I had to remove it. MSE is now integrated into Windows 8. I still get updates for definitions so it is there in the 'background'. I've never had a virus using MSE.

I always try to mail my rebates in asap. Most only give you 30 days from the purchase date. Always make a copy of everything you send. I usually put the rebate form (filled in) and the UPC on the scanner to make a copy to keep. I've had to use a copy like that for a rebate before (not at Kohl's) and they honored it. Currently I'm waiting on my Keurig rebate (bought machine at Kohl's). They received it and it's in process, so that is a good sign.

Nice, I wish I had seen that (needed one for MIL).

Amazon has Star Trek: The Complete Original Series (Seasons 1-3) on Blu-ray for $129.99! If you are a Trekkie or know someone who is, this is the set to buy them for Christmas. This is also the cheapest this set has ever been. Order NOW because it won't last long! Edit: It looks to be part of their Deal of the Week.

Black Friday Webcast Thread - Details, Schedule & More - FINAL WEBCAST TONIGHT!
bpr replied to bigjimslade's topic in 2012
Well, it's almost that time . Can't wait for the end of the BF season wrap-up show though. Even though BF is over, the deals will still be coming. -
Even though I can't win a shirt (won a 2013 last week ) I guess I'll stick around another year (heck, I've been here for 7 years (actually 8 yrs, 1st year I was a lurker )).

Sometimes Amazon is like that; you can get one color but not the next. Maybe they ran out quickly of the black. A similar situation happens when ordering the new iPod Touch (nano and 32GB versions). The sale is only for the NEW colored versions (blue, pink, silver, etc) not the original black color. You try to get in 'the back door' but it won't let you .

No; Rewards Zone: Premier Silver Members at Best Buy got to shop early on Monday. This was my first time so I was shocked I was able to get it. Had I waited until now, it wouldn't have happened.

Not for Black Friday.

Basically, if you really want something, you have to camp on their site for the next day or so; I've done it before.
-
Oh, I see it now when I click on my shopping cart. Got it . I'm going back to the 'front page', lol.

My Walmart site is 'normal. I don't see anything weird.
-
You could buy it and call CSR in the morning then if it doesn't work cancel your order. It's a risk though (not for the feint of heart (or wallet)) that most aren't willing to try because it will 'tie up' that money temporarily. Like I said, see if there is anything in their price matching policy.
-
No, still only showing one thing online...........Dr. Dre, lol .
-
Good question, but I don't think so. The TV would have to be the EXACT model. Also, I don't t hink the price matching applies to online orders. Look on Walmart's site for their price matching policy; it may give you more info.
