    NEC Closeout $145 refurbished EA274wmi

    NEC's refurbished policy. They say they only offer replacement or repair. Not sure if that will apply here as they have agreed that the monitor I received was not inspected or refurbished. Don't know yet if I'll have to take it to CC dispute. I'll know more next week. Bottom line: Don't buy...

    NEC Closeout $145 refurbished EA274wmi

    If you did not get this "deal" thank your lucky stars. These monitors should be advertised USED, not refurbished or reconditioned. The first monitor I received had an obvious series of 5-6 lines running up from bottom to top. By obvious, I mean you turn it on and it's staring you in the face...

    NEC Closeout $145 refurbished EA274wmi

    You must have seen one of the signage displays or cheapo monitors at that price, not the professional Color Accurate PA's. With shipping the 27" PA272 was $430. I got the 30" for $476 and free shipping. Needed one for my business. Have over 11,000 hours on my old NEC P221W I've been using for...

    NEC Closeout $145 refurbished EA274wmi

    Yes. Should be a nice upgrade over my aging P221W. I already have the necessary x-rite sensor and software to calibrate. Dude at NEC said most of the people who ordered these monitors likely did not even need a color managed monitor. For those that do wish to calibrate and don't already have the...

    NEC Closeout $145 refurbished EA274wmi

    I'm glad I waited. Almost ordered one of the 27" . Waited. Then just yesterday after everyone said the deal was dead and gone, I ordered the 30"....AND got 20% off....AND got free shipping! Getting the 30" for the same price I would have paid for the 27" if I had jumped in earlier....sweet...

    Sale? What sale? Waste of Prime. Waste of time. Amazon, you suck my balls.

    Newegg no-rebate $5 Antivirus deals...

    I use Panda. Doesn't look like there is any advantage to paying $5 for the "Pro" version over the free version.

    Hot, Netgear AC1900 $89.97 Walmart B&M

    If all you need is a router without much additional features, go for the Netgear. But a much better deal on a more fully featured AC router with tons of features: spend $25 more at Newegg for the Asus RT-AC66R which is only $120 with promo code EMCWWHB32...

    3 Years of VPN - $19

    There is no "activation" of multiple licenses. You are assigned one license to sign into the VPN, i.e. username and password. You can be signed in with 5 devices simultaneously. So, sign in with your phone and 4 computers simultaneously and you're good. Try to sign in on a 6th device at the...

    Andrew Jones Designed Pioneer Speakers On Sale

    I'll second that. Slickdeals says the Andrew Jones Pioneers on sale for this price again at HHGregg. BB price matched Amazon, but they had to order my second pair of the Andrew Jones bookshelfs. So I've got 4 of the bookshelfs, the Andrew Jones sub and the Andrew Jones center speaker and just...

Turned on wireless display on my phone...wow! There's my phone mirrored on my TV and holy hell the quality is awesome. So much...
