It’s LED-lit, 120Hz, it’s got a ton of inputs — perfect for a college apartment, hmm? Buy! [via Deal News] → Read More

    Dueling $300 15.6" laptops at Walmart and Best Buy – competition is good!

    It’s the pre-back-to-school rush (or maybe the pre-pre rush) and every electronics retailer and e-tailer knows that students love new laptops. Best Buy and Walmart both have a Celeron 900-based 15.6″ laptop with 2GB of RAM and a 250GB hard drive. Best Buy’s is Toshiba, plus it has DDR3 RAM instead of DDR2, so I’d go with that one. They aren’t anything special, but the fact is these are better computers than you could get for a grand a year or two ago. If you need a holdover notebook before switching to a Mac or nicer PC, this would be a good time to buy. → Read More

    Do you love the look and feel of cappuccino leather? Do you have digitized media that needs to be stored? Do you have $70 burning a hole in your pocket? Then today is your lucky day, friend. Amazon’s got a nice deal on this decadent-looking Iomega (that looks like it should be full of whiskey) right now. $70 for 500GB ain’t the best deal in the entire world, but sometimes you need a touch of leather in your life. Update: deal’s over, it’s back to $100 bucks. → Read More

    CrunchDeals: Watchismo's stock of vintage mechanicals on sale

    Mmmm… I love me a jump hour. Mitch at Watchismo is holding a sale on most of his vintage stock including a crazy Jaeger LeCoultre Masterquartz LED and a bunch of Jump Hour “digital” watches from before the era of digital.

    This crazy Sicura is particularly amazing with its battery lamp lighting up a handwind movement. → Read More

    CrunchDeals: $499.99 Gateway laptop

    Seriously? $499 for a Win7 laptop? It’s basically the NV5387u, a pretty rough old girl with a Turion II processor and 4GB RAM but the bugger runs Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Ultra Supper Club Bill’s Choice++ so you’re good in that respect. → Read More

    CrunchDeals: 2TB Western Digital hard drive for $109


    This is crazy. Storage is so damn cheap now. It wasn’t that long ago that 2TB drives cost north of $300 and now this Western Digital drive can be had for $109 after a $40 mail-in rebate. Hopefully next year around this time we’ll be saying the same thing about 3TB hard drives. → Read More

    CrunchDeals: 1200 free photo prints at ArtsCow

    CrunchDeal: 1TB for $70

    Just to help you spend your paycheck today, we’ve got another CrunchDeal for you. Let’s say you’re running out of space, so you don’t have enough room to download Left 4 Dead 2. No problem, Newegg.com is selling a Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB drive for $70. This is the SATA 3.0Gb/s version, with the 4kb physical sectors. That makes it perfect for Windows 7, but no so great for XP. You can still use it, but it’ll require WD’s Align application. It’s still a great deal at $70, particularly if you have something like a NAS. The Western Digital Caviar Green drives actually run a little cooler then most other models, so you shouldn’t run into thermal issues. [via Tech Report] → Read More

    CrunchDeal: Left 4 Dead 2 for $20 on Steam

    Curse you Steam store, and all your weekend deals. I’m weak before your offers of gaming goodness, and my list of games in the new Steam client grows ever larger. It’s particularly bad when you offer games like Left 4 Dead 2 for $20. Don’t tell my wife, I just clicked on that buy button. → Read More

    CrunchDeals: Casio Men's Databank Watch for $20

    I remember I had a Casio calculator watch that could pick lottery numbers. Why? I don’t know. I think I also had a data bank watch, very similar to this one, that I was able to use to keep all of my important phone numbers at age twelve. Those numbers probably included my friend Danny’s, my friend Richie’s, and maybe my own home phone number. Anyway, you can get one for yourself for $19.99 with one penny shipping. → Read More

    RAM hits a new low, Newegg selling 1GB for $1.99 (after MIR)

    This is just crazy. Newegg has a killer deal on 1GB 204-pin DDR3 stick of RAM. It’s only $1.99 after a mail-in rebate. Sure, you’re going to pay $21.99 + $2.99 for shipping, but then there’s that nice $20 rebate. That’s so cheap you could justify buying this for a keychain accessory alone. → Read More
