Let the geek wanton consumerism begin
So if you're like me, you take advantage of the holiday to do some uh .... "self gifting". Newegg apparently just said eff it and they're already doing Black Friday type deals.

720p LED projector ... $450 shipped.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6824009334

2 TB hard drive .... $88 shipped (!!!)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6822136891
Use code: EMCJJNH23


Here's the listing of the deals and the unpublished codes they only send to mailing list subscribers: http://promotions.newegg.com/NEemail/Nov...nding.html

Don't take too long ... by the time I saw the email the 128 GB Samsung SSD for $60 shipped was longggggggg gone.

I need that kind of space. As does anybody building a NAS. As does anybody in enterprise because the platter density increases transfer speeds. As does anybody in video. As does anybody in graphics. As does anybody in audio. As does... as does.... as does....

And if you want a HDTV screen larger than say 48" ... a projector is ALWAYS a better buy.
