This is so totally OT that it hurts, but $200 accounting software for nothing is a good thing for those who use it:

You have to pay up front and deal with a rebate and might get hit with sales tax, but shipping is free.

I would approach this with caution. Rebates SUCK!!!! I'm pretty sure rebates are offered due to the high percentage of people not properly complying with rebate requirements. I am still waiting for a few rebates that I sent out years ago.

Truth.^ You have to be meticulous and persistent when it come to rebates. Caveat emptor.

Drag. Already sold out. Thanks for the heads up, though, hon.

You know if you say 'nevermind' everyone's gonna stop and see what we're not supposed to pay attention to.

(I see your point though) :wink:

I was actually about to ETA with something random and instructional, like how to fold a shirt in 2 seconds:

but I'm open to suggestions.

Ditto EQ (sorry - got my attribution wrong first time) on the rebate thing. I'm jumping through hoops with a very respected supplier at the moment (for work, thankfully). Even when they are making an honest offer, the admin is a bitch.

PoliceRule. Do you have IRIS over there? May just be a uk thing, in which case - of course - bugger all use to you. The version we have is not super-cheap, but if a US version does exist I'd recommend them.

As for what to do with a redundant thread, well, dunno. Anyone got some socks they can decorate? ;-)

Not only that, but be wary of rebates offered by entities in danger of going into bankruptcy (like Circuit City). If they go belly up, you're screwed.

Dang it, I thought it was gonna be something "interesting". :wink:
