Well, the big deal last year was the $378 laptop that Walmart offered which didn’t have any really amazing specs (which is obvious for the price). This year, however, they will be offering a $398 laptop starting on November 5 and going until November 11. So this isn’t a Black Friday sale but is amazing enough to be one. Here is a list of the specs for Compaq Presario V5305WM laptop:
  • 2.00 GHz Mobile AMD Sempron™ Processor 3300+
  • 512MB 333MHz DDR (upgradable to 2GB)
  • ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M IGP (128MB)
  • 60GB 5400RPM Hard-Drive
  • 24X DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive
  • 15.4” WXGA High-Definition BrightView Widescreen (1280 x 800) Display
  • Integrated 56k modem, 100mb Network Card and 54g 802.11b/g Wireless Connectivity
  • 1 ExpressCard/54 Slot (Not PCMCIA)
  • 10.2?(L) x 14.1?(W) x 1.38?(min H) /1.77?(max H)
  • 6.4 lbs

Seems good ;)
 
Lets see, 15 per store, 6 stores in the metropolitan area I live in means 90 units for a population of 300,000. Yeah no problem. I show up with body armor and an M-60 and I might be able to get one.

Another draw people into the store and watch the fist fights break out deal from Walmart.
 
I went to two different Walmarts on Sunday, couldn't find one :(
 
thius sort of thing is hype - and frustrating for me in the UK too! bet W****m**t (asterisked to keep spiders out!) love the google ranking on laptop searches though!

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
