Hey everybody, I'm looking to sell my ThinkPad X301. It's a sweet ultraportable that's served me well for over 2 years. There are still ~6 months left on the warranty. $800 shipped, OBO.

Ah, my mistake. I haven't done a clean install to a reformatted drive since XP. All my Vista installs have just been clean over an existing XP or Vista install. Let's hope the SD FAQ is legit and they'll just let you put in a CD from a full version :D
I could be mistaken, but wouldn't it just restart your system and boot into the OS installation like normal? I think from there, you can go about doing a clean install (formatting/partitioning/etc), and the initial OS boot is just a formality.

The article quotes the mother as saying she went and researched Twitter before joining, so you can probably infer that she gave her consent. A guess, sure, but hardly "asinine."

I disagree with #s 1, 3, and 5. They won't become extinct, but they'll become more niche.
Landlines are still useful in areas with poor cell reception, and it's useful to have a phone that will still work during an extended power outage or that goes directly to a 911 dispatcher with your...
I picked it up on Amazon a few weeks ago for $37, and it was worth every penny. It's an absolute steal at $35, and nobody who has a blu-ray player should skip this one.
Best Buy will do a straight price match if you haven't bought it yet and a price match plus 10% of the difference if you bought it within the past 30 days.
Spotted it in today's ad.
EDIT: Same price on Amazon.com too. Makes for a nice Christmas gift to myself :D

It was on the back of today's sports page in the LA Times. There's no picture, but it's right below the My Book Essential Edition, on the lower right side of the ad.
Western Digital My Book Home Edition, SKU #5532940. I checked their online price, which showed up as $199.99, so I'm assuming this is in-store only.
Best Buy has the same drive for $229.99, so if you can get them to do the price-match plus 10%, you can it for $108.99...
It's a nice gesture on Best Buy's part, seeing as how you get to keep your player, but it's not completely hands-off. Check out the fine print:

The majority of people are probably going to have to call Best Buy to get their cards.
Try getting them price matched at another store. The last time Fry's had Assassin's Creed and Mario Galaxy for $39.99, I just got them price matched at Best Buy. I had both games on the Tuesday they came out, even though the Fry's ad said "available by Thursday." Of course, ymmv.
If you're only casually into paintball, then to be honest, no, all that stuff isn't worth the money. You're on the right track though. Most of that stuff is for accuracy and/or consistency (get a crappy rental marker and chrono 5 consecutive shots, or try to hit the same spot each time and...
I have a Japanese PS2 that boots fine, but the drive tray doesn't stay closed. It just opens automatically when you close it, with or without a disc in the tray.
I missed this in Friday's ad because of the way Fry's advertises ($1799 before savings), but they have the Panasonic TH-42PZ77U and a free Panasonic Blu-Ray player for $1299. Sales tax kind of hurts the deal, but if you're in the market for a new TV, Panasonic plasmas are hard to beat.
