CompUSA Geek Meet Fri. 3/19
 
CompUSA is having one of there 6 hour sales Friday 6PM-midnight.

I think this is their 20th anniversary or something.

Flyer should be in Friday's paper, or on the web. Usually some good deals on something.

Usually a little bit of a line starting right around 4:30-5:00.

Hang out, Eat Taco Bell, Wendy's...

Takers?

ArthurS 2004-03-18 11:58 AM

MikeSTI 2004-03-18 12:11 PM

I'm a bit of a technology geek and can always use more stuff. Someone post when they know what might be offered.

Not sure if it will be on line. Should be in the morning paper though! I didn't see it in today's.

Dean 2004-03-18 11:02 PM

Here is the link to the Adds 2 pages I think...

Anything on Page 2 actually is on sale all day, so if it is a good deal, you may want to go in the AM..

And I lied. It was in Thursday's paper, not today's. I missed it when I looked yesterday. Most of the stuff on the front page looks like pretty good deals.

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 01:10 PM

Don't worry, they'll be filling it up with pron before you know it.... kids grow up fast these days! :lol:

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 02:29 PM

well when you think of it that way...........Games these days can take up to and beyond 3 gigs so it might be the way to go :shock:

not to mention it might teach them a leason about going to those websites <porn> that when the hard drive goes down again you lose a lot of loading time :lol:

but hopefully that stuff will be gross to them for atleast 7 more years 8)

Hah! :lol: And you can always use it as a backup/server for yours.

Dean 2004-03-19 02:42 PM

That notebook really is a killer deal. 15" TFT, DVD CD-RW for under $700. And as long as you aren't a hard core gammer, that desktop rocks as well for $300. And the 8X burner is really good since it is $100 out the door and $20 rebate. I think my 4x 4a $120 out the door, and $40 rebate 2 months ago.

Don't know much about the camera, but for $150 giv it to the kids and let them go wild...

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 02:51 PM

lots of good stuff what time? do we want to meet somewhere?

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 02:51 PM

:lol: :lol: as I look up!!!! :lol:

ArthurS 2004-03-19 02:52 PM

In, what time does everyone want to meet? At least I'll try if I don't work late.

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 02:55 PM

I need to pick up a hard drive so I need to go.....thinking about getting there around 5:00ish I'm sure the lines will be long anytime after 4:30 so just grab what you need and we can hang out in line :?

I plan on leaving the office at 4:30. Anybody real hot for the notebook, or PC should probably get there at 4:30 or so.

it is hard to tell. for all I know, there may already be a line a 3PM. But last ime I di this, I was #1 or 2 at 4:30 as I recall.

How bad do you want it? We are not going to be able to let a ton of people cut without getting people pissy, so I would suggest anyone wanting cuts be there by 5.

I have 4 or 5 folding chairs in my car, but bring your own if you want. I'll set mine up when I get there to save spots.

MikeSTI 2004-03-19 02:57 PM

He's posing for his next captive audience theatre ad. He's a big shot now, flyers are for woosies... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dean 2004-03-19 03:59 PM

So Art is a flake, that leaves Mike, and Franz I think. Anybody else?

ArthurS 2004-03-19 04:03 PM

I could make it later, but then you guys would have bought all the good stuff.

PS - Theater ad has done nothing business wise, just helps with the name recognition...I don't know if its worth it at 4,500$ a year. Might be taking it down soon.
