Interesting... I need new tires this year. I'll have to check the ads.

Nice job BigJim.
-
I was hoping you would switch to hangouts this year so I could cast it on the big screen... 60" of BigJimSlade!
Looking forward to the casts.
BTW... Livestream is listing it as starting an our later than what you have above... what time is it actually starting?

Maybe my Prime membership will pay for itself.

I agree with open office. That's what we use here.
Instead of Micro$oft Office, maybe you could save a few bucks and use OpenOffice (free) or LibreOffice (also free).
I've used all three and while I'm more familiar with Microsoft's Office suite, I was able to easily do everything I needed in the Open and Libre Office suites (word processing and spreadsheets) in very short order.
And the free suites were able to open Microsoft Office documents, make edits and save back to the same format without issue.
I agree with open office. That's what we use here.
I recommend LibreOffice.
The development is more active than OpenOffice that it was split from.

They should just pay Brad and post them here first...

Looking forward to the casts BigJim

This should liven things up.

We've not done a long sleeve T yet... I like that idea.
I can never have enough hoodies too.

Why Windows?
Good question.
Is there a specific need for Windows? I don't like them as much unless you are going to go all out and get a Surface. But those come at a premium.

I'm really thinking of getting a Chromebook this year if the prices are right for a decent model.
-
We should have a lot to talk about here soon... All kinds of announcements for new phones coming in the next few weeks.

w00t! Here we go...

You can get a decent 1080p projector for probably a bit less than that Vizio 70". But there are other factors to consider: A decent surface to project on is one. Another is that, if you don't already have a home theatre sound solution of some kind, you're gonna have to put one together, as the projector is unlikely to have anything useful to contribute in that area. Also, DO YOUR HOMEWORK regarding the longevity and price of a projector's light source, as that can represent a substantial back-end cost that many folks do not take into account before they buy.
Thanks... I already have a decent sound solution in the basement... I'll have to do some research.

This is hugely variable every year...
One bet is that they will go on sale at the same time as the B&M, but that is never a guarantee....
-
What about a good HDTV Projector? I'm sort of interested for one for my basement... but now I'm thinking that the 70" Vizio would be a better deal....

Hey 'Chief,
Loved reading the history of the comparison chart...
Has it really been that long?
Man... we are getting old...

I'm sure the 70" will sell quickly, but I don't know if it will be that "hot". Not many people have room for a TV that size...
Although I would consider one...

Great Job Big Jim!

Just a TV so far...
I'm looking for an SSD, but haven't found any yet.

I think I will join in tonight!

I am new to the tablet world so please bare with me. My dd (13) is wanting something to read books on. She has a smart phone but isn't allowed to use it in class. She also can play games and take pics w/her phone so that isn't important. So basically looking for what I need to be looking at for her to read books. Really don't want to spend very much so not sure what I should be looking for. Thanks for any info.
Sounds like a good candidate for something in the Kindle line.
If it is strictly for reading books, the paperwhite is very nice.

I just picked up a 32" Seiki TV for $129 at a Veterans Day sale at AAFES.
I was actually very surprised by the quality... nice thin bezel and full 1080p.
If you have access to an AAFES you can grab one for the next couple days.

Use the comparison charts in the tools section of Gottadeal if you are looking for something specific. This makes it easy to compare where you may want to get different items.
I agree.
There are a lot of tools here to use.
My best and short advice is to research. Make a plan, and execute it.
The planning is key if you plan on hitting the B&M stores.

Can anyone give me info on iPods on Black Friday as well as pricing?

It is pretty common knowledge that there aren't a lot of deals on Apple products over the holidays.
I don't think any real deals on them have been leaked yet.
