This explains everything.

I believe woot offs would only last hours or up to one day. For the past year they've been last up to 3 days. It gets crazy!! But you never know when a woot off is.

I have a Lenovo X61 that is crazy light and works pretty well.

Looks like a simple upgrade with the Eee's SSD harddrive makes it pretty darn fast.

that site's FAQ's are funny as hell

Why is the "I Want One" button bouncing around?
Ah, that means we're in Urgent Mode. Act fast - a sellout is approaching! The bouncing button is like a nutty old prophet guy on the street wearing a signboard that says "THE END IS NIGH," only cleaner, less crazy, and more orange.

I'm sure if it is known, it'll be found on that site though.

Ya, they have qwerky writing on everything they sell.

Plus you cant beat the $5 shipping on pretty much everything they sell.

zed · 04-19-2009, 05:24 PM
