Re: Woot.com
Woot Had PS3's last night. They sold out quick but the description was awesome:
"We're using super-fast express fancy shipping to get this to you tomorrow!*
Woot Sells PS3? Wii, Wii!
So, hey, check it out: there’s this awesome new gaming system that we just can’t stop playing. Too bad it’s so hard to find in stores – we guess they just didn’t make enough of them. It’s called the Nintendo Wii, and holy mother of Zelda, is it ever a blast. If the Wii is cool with polygamy, we might ask it to marry us.
The controller – so easy! No more intricate push-this-twice, pull-that-three-times trickery, just easy waves of the hand. The console – so cute! It actually makes our gaming room look better, unlike the bulky, ugly consoles we could mention. How does Nintendo keep the price so low on that thing, anyway? And the games, good Lord, the games! Not to mention those adorable avatars. We’ve already created virtual versions of the entire staff, so we can beat each other virtually-bloody instead of actually-bloody, like we usually do. The only problem is that none of the nose options are as big as Jason’s actual nose. But that’s a minor quibble.
In fact, we love the Wii so much, we want to give a Wii to everybody on our payroll. To fund this Wii-for-the-People program, we're selling this Sony PlayStation 3. The SIXAXIS wireless controller is basically the same complicated gazillion-button-style controller you know from past PS models, but at least you won’t be fighting Grandma for gaming time. Along with the usual roster of ho-hum games, the PS3 can play CDs, DVDs, and Blu-Ray discs, and the 20GB hard drive can store music, videos, and music videos. It’s certainly, er, rather full-figured, for those of you who want a lot of heft for your money. And its HDMI capabilities give you polygons and frames-per-second out the wazoo, if you prefer that stuff to having fun.
Best of all, for every PS3 you buy, we can buy Wiis for two of our employees. So when you get frustrated by those intricate combo-button moves, or bored by the underwhelming game offerings for the PS3, keep the spirit of the season in mind. Remember all those happy Woot staffers whose lives have been changed by their super-fun Nintendo Wiis, paid for by you. Heartwarming, isn’t it?

Re: Woot.com
I have that mouse in green. I love it for gaming, not so much for surfing.

Re: Woot.com
Thanks for showing this website, I signed up for their newsletter and will check in from time to time.
To all of you thinking of getting a Razer Copperhead, do yourself a favor and go and check it out in a store first. Hold it and imagine yourself playing with it. I thought it felt "weird" when I bought mine, but I thought I would get used to it since every mouse feels a little different. I found out though, that the thumb buttons were tucked too far under for me to use them effectively since there is a ridge all around the side of the mouse for "aesthetic" purposes.
Also, I found that the drivers and included program leave alot to be desired. It was buggy, sometimes the mouse would just not respond sometimes when I booted up my computer. I updated to the latest firmware on the Razer site as well as drivers, and no help. I thought maybe my system needed redone, so I completely erased my HD and loaded windows and all the latest drivers for everything (I do this about once a year to keep things fresh) and the mouse still didn't cooperate. I think it had something to do with the onboard memory of the mouse.
For those of you that have this mouse and like it, I want to be clear I am not totally downing it, just letting potential buyers of potential problems.
I eventually smashed it the other night playing BF2142 and went out and bought a Logitech MX518 which is what I used before the copperhead. It feels great and I don't know why I switched in the first place.
