  1. The games were live and could be put in the cart.... but not the Switch bundle itself. I kept checking every two minutes and had actually put it in my cart the moment it went live, but by the time I got through checkout was sold out. Costco had a different bundle (w/ controller, travel case and game case) available only to members so I was able that one. Ended up getting the games at Best Buy.
  2. Tried to get three of the Switch games and the Switch. All but one of the games were said to be sold out within five minutes of the ad going live.
  3. Sam's main site is accessible but the pages for the one day sale are locked down due to traffic. Had the same problems with it last year with one of their pre-BF sales. EDIT: Finally got in.... looks like they got it sorted out. Bought the Vizio 50" 4K TV (D50x-G9) for $279. Added in 4-yr square trade warranty for another $29.99 I'm happy.....
  4. Got in this time around when the BF sale went live without any problems. Was able to order one of the laptops (opted for one of the i7 based model rather than an i5 unit) and a printer and got out without any trouble.
  5. Hammered into oblivion. By the time I got in most items were sold out. Including the $399 HP laptop the wife wanted.
  6. I loved Firefox's interface, but I moved from Firefox to Chrome browser because of constant lockups and got sick and tired of Mozilla locking out addons (such as Flash and Shockwave) and not allowing me to run my computer as I want to with each upgrade.
  7. iPad2 hasn't changed.... and neither has the price. The iPad Air is replacing the previous generation which is no longer in production. iPad Mini now includes the retina display and improved camera. Target was advertising the outgoing 16GB iPad for $50 off its original price here in AZ a week ago. Apple more than likely has ceased production on it so you may see some retailers offering deals to get rid of remaining stock. But Apple isn't known for allowing its retailers to continue selling older models once the new ones are released.
  8. If they did that here in Phoenix right now they'd be certifiable.
  9. They're usually sell in the original shipping boxes. But putting them together really isn't that difficult.
  10. It's an L-Series Bravia. Checking Sony's website there currently only one 32" L-Series model listed. Here are quickspecs: 32" Class BRAVIA L Series LCD HDTV Model Number: KDL-32L5000 (Screen size measures 31.5" diagonally.) Model features: 720p resolution, 13,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, 6 HD inputs, BRAVIA Link ready, ENERGY STAR® 3.0 certified Retail price: $499 The L-Series is the bottom end of the Bravia line. IMO... comparable the Samsung's 3-Series. FWIW... we bought two of the Samsung 32" 3 Series LCDs that were BF'd at 2-3 stores last year at $399. They were special builds for BF (model number not even listed on Samsung's site) and had fewer features (only two inputs and lower contrast ratio) than the Sony model above. We managed to get them at a Sears F&F sale the week before for about $380. Have been very happy with them.
  11. But you can run XP on a Mac.... and still keep the Mac.
  12. That game was just released, so chances are you won't see it discounted. But it also should not hurt to wait until and see what happens closer to BF.
  13. Also check out the auction site at shopgoodwill.com. I replaced my stolen N64 and most of the games for it that way.
  14. gamespot.com reported a rumor off another website with a picture of a Sept. 27th ad scan for ToysRUs showing the drop to $199. The same site reported early ad data from Walmart making the same price drop the first week in October. IMO.... It's not a matter of if anymore..... it's now a matter of when.
  15. The main differences in the DSi are the addition of the internal/external cameras and replacing the GBA cartridge slot with an SDram port. You lose the ability to play older GameBoy games, but all DS games will work. And Nintendo has opened the DSi Shop which allows you to download other games, much like the Wii can.
