In the Wednesday Fry's Elec. newspaper ad (Phoenix area):
Cambridge Soundworks/PC Works 3 pc. speakers.
Designed by Koss.
Powered sub and 2 satellites powered through sub
SKU 1073943
$19.99 - No Rebate
Some Specs from manual:
satellite amplifier - one channel into 4 ohm, < 1% total harmonic distortion at 1 kHz, 3.5w RMS
subwoofer amplifier - into 4 ohm, < 1% total harmonic distortion at 100Hz, 10w RMS
These are actually really decent speakers for the price. Got this deal and bought 3 sets when they ran the same deal about a month ago. Plenty of volume and no noticable distortion with music cd's. These sound very good, especially for the price. Wednesday ad said on sale Wednesday only, but they have had these on sale off and on for the last month, at least. Watch your local Fry's ads for availability of this deal.
Not in ad, In-Store Special:
Fujifilm 24x/80min/700mb cd-r 50 pk. silver/blue
Made in Japan (Taiyo Yudens? IMO, they probably are.)
SKU 2894074
$8.49 - No Rebate
Saw an In-store Special display. Sign on display said Fuji 16x 50pk. cd-r, $19.99. However, all the cd-r's on the display were 24x. Took 2 - 50pks. to the register and had them do a price check. They rang up at $8.49 each. Clerk said this was the correct price as these are on sale. He said whoever set up the display got the information on the display sign wrong. Don't know how long this price will be good. YMMV

I want a fry's in Utah! :(
but my wife is probably glad we don't :bunny::bunny:
There's no Fry's in Utah? I thought Fry's was a chain store all across America...
I wish we had one here too. All we have in my town is Staples and I'd rather drive 45 min. to Topeka,KS than to buy from staples.

Well, I'm moving to Austin in a couple months and there'll be a Fry's waiting for me :cooldude:
I've been reluctant to drive 82 mi from my hometown of San Antonio to Austin just to visit a computer store, but once I move I'll probably become there #1 Customer, :D

Hey, I got a Fry's! It's not Fry's electronic.. I think it's something like Fry's Happy Wok or something.. LOL And besides, Fry's electronics isn't that far from where I currently am.. Only like 12,000 miles (11 hours) taking a non-stop flight to LAX! LOL :rolleyes:
But hey, they have something MUCH MUCH better out here in Seoul, Korea... like 5 high-rise buildings (at least 10 floors) and bunch of little ones all located in a area they call "Electro-Town" and all floors are computer hardware! You need to pack a lunch to see all the stores in this area! I think the only thing that comes close to this is the electronic market in Japan....
LOL, NDC - Fry's Happy Wok? ;) hehe I'd love to see that Electro-Town you're talking about.

I wanna Fry's, too, if only for the choice and the "grab and go" factor. Besides, CompUSelessA is clean across town and not usually worth the trip. and we'll not discuss Beast Buy.:(
ELECTRO_TOWN---oh, God is that heaven or what???????????

There is one in Vegas. I try to stay out of there...
Not sure why you say that though, surreal. You're not even close.
!?
Speaking of Fry's, they have a special on a 200GB WD HDD for 129 after rebate. Grab them while you can! :)

nm that last post I saw when you were registered and thought thats when you posted. But about Fry's I love that store their ad comes on the back of my sports page in our paper and I just can't wait to see it everyday. People think I am looking at sports when I am really just a comp geek!
Welcome aboard, h4x.OR! :)
Sadly, when I buy the paper, it's very rare I read the paper first! I read the specials ads.. LOL :D
