It was tempting but all I bought was the SATA carrier case.  Fry's prices beat
those of Best Buy, Staples, Office Depot, and most others. The exception is the
NX, Sam's Club, or Costco.  The big difference is the vast stock of items sold
at Fry's compared to the others.

You should have asked for a "rain check". I think they still issue those on
items that are out of stock that were recently advertised.  The Fort Worth NX
does not stock the Toshiba but does have the Acer and Dell.

Man after my own heart. :)  We donated our last two cars to church folks who
had no transportation or who couldn't afford to buy a vehicle.  One of the
folks we donated a car to (1997 Camry) back in 2003 is still driving it.

We are also waiting for the registration for the latest car I bought for my
wife.  It takes the DMV at Austin at least a month and sometimes longer to send
along the paperwork.  Even longer when going through a dealer since they
consolidate all their sales and new registrations sending them in all at once.

Regards.
