Similar to what's offered on yugster.
www.dailysteals.com

Be careful with all these sites. Although they often list items as new, you'll find that some are refurbished. Maybe not a knife but quite possibly electronics.

Good site Brian.

Checking them out today I see a couple of what appears to be good buys.

Motorola T325 Car Bluetooth Speaker with Voice Caller ID for $14.99 http://www.dailysteals.com/

and the main deal of the day:

ZMODO 4CH CCTV DVR Security System with 4 IR Night Vision Weatherproof Cameras and Remote Viewing on Smartphone or Computer $119.99 w/ 4.99 shipping.
http://www.dailysteals.com/

Lowest price by far on one of these units, but you are limited to only 4 cameras.

Amazon has the same system for $199.99 (Retail is listed at 299.99 ... but nobody pays retail. :D)

If you run on to any good deals, please, post them here. :thumb:

That is a good deal if you like apple. Watch for a laptop deal, preferably with XP on it. I am going tone deaf hearing about the IBM not playing facebook games fast enough.

I'll keep an eye out for one for you Muley. I would recommend Win 7 over XP. It's like an upgrade. You'll still know your way around as it is much like XP.

Todays deal ... I'm a sucker for lasers. My last one has disappeared, so I jumped on this deal. Stores aren't stocking them like they used to, and this one is blue-violet. Kewl.

Blue-Violet High Powered Laser Pointer - Choose Between 5mw, 10mw, or 30mw

Make your point with this sharp-looking Blue-Violet Laser Pointer! The blue-violet laser is great for presentations, playing with your pets, or anything in between! Skip the red and go straight for this Laser Pointer. These come in 5mw, 10mw, or 30mw.

Retail Price: $29.95

5mw: $ 9.97
10mw $11.97
30mw $14.97

Gawd, I swear, the next time somebody uses a laser point to point to something on a screen with a projected something or other, I am going to go off. Phuk ya I can read and decipher what is up there for phuk's sake! Christ on a bike I can read! And then I'm supposed to watch that unstabilized light as the presenter wiggles about???? Phawk!

Sorry.........

Laser pointers are for playing with dogs... The love chasing them around. Better then throwing toys to the dog (in the house). Very entertaining when the dog is on a laminate floor as they slide all over the place.

...and cats. :D Our dogs figure it out after a while but the cats never catch on. :yum:

Fred,
for network diagrams when you are trying to track data flow to ensure everyone is on the same data point laser pointers fit the bill. I agree there is no need for them if they are simply pointing at the bulleted words etc.

2G memory on that concerns me a bit. I'm new to Windows 7 but just firing things up and getting a couple things open sucks up about 2G.

I agree Brian, it is entry level pretty much, but for primarily browsing the internet and reading emails it would be fine.

Tiger Direct has some higher end ones also under $400 (barely). Here's my fav:

Samsung RV520-W01US Refurbished Notebook PC - Intel Core i3 2.1GHz, 4GB DDR3, 320GB HDD, DVDRW, 15.6" Display, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit

Price: $399.99

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=1890699&sku=P101-156100

I bought a refurbished Gateway from TigerDirect 2 yrs ago and it is still going strong. I would do it again without hesitation. I like this one better because of 64bit, 4gig of memory and 320gb of disk storage; plus you get a bigger screen to work with. It is 80 bucks more and this one is refurbished. Decisions decisions .....

here's a link if you want to shop more:

I love the Lenovo ThinkPad I got from Tiger Direct and got a good deal on it at the time. i5 chip, 8 gig of ram, DVD/CD burner, wifi, 15.6 HD screen, 500 gig HD for $485 including a Lenovo docking station. Mine was NIB though and not refurbished but they have deals all the time. I've been on their mailing list for years now and have purchased a lot of stuff from them over the years.

I agree, if I was in the market I'd buy it. ...but the one Joe mentions for 85 bucks more gets you double the memory and more disk storage ...and it's new. Worth consideration if they are still selling them at that price.

Thanks Joe. I've seen those Lenvo at Tiger Direct and noticed some pretty good prices but had not talked to anyone who bought one. So I was hesitant about them. I saw one on TD right after Muley asked about a good price on a laptop but I was not comfortable recommending it since I knew nothing of the brand.

I saw one on TD right after Muley asked about a good price on a laptop but I was not comfortable recommending it since I knew nothing of the brand.

I'm not sure what they are selling them for now as I got mine on a 1 week sale and the extra 4 gig of ram was $21 and docking station was $50 so the price I gave was inclusive of my whole order. Last I saw they are selling the same computer now with 4 gig for about a $100 more. Though they often have really great sales and I got lucky and caught one when I had the money in hand to buy as well as looking for one.

I know my Lenovo is the coldest running laptop I've ever owned as it barely gets warm at all running all day long. I had a toshiba a number of years ago that would almost blister your legs if set in your lap for very long. Luckily it wasn't mine but one issued by the school board at the time. It stopped me for years on wanting one till I saw the Lenovo.

Doc - They're IBM's. IBM split off their PC business and voila... meet Lenovo!

They're good quality PC's.

I know the ThinkPad I have is a brick and in my opinion every bit as good as the i7 chipped desktop I have in the office. Yes Lenovo was IBM and still builds IBM computers though they now sell under their own name also. Mine is 64 bit with Windows 7 Professional and all it came with was a virus checker which I dumped and installed the one I used and Office 10 that you needed to buy the code for. I just uninstalled it and installed my Office XP Developer's version which works great also. I then downloaded the up grade for older versions of Office to read the newer file formats and haven't missed a beat.

I just checked and mine is about $150 now more than what I paided. Here it is http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1366238&CatId=4935
