I was at Best Buy this morning when I decided to see what DVD players they had in stock. I noticed some opened items with discounted prices so I glanced at them and noticed a 5 disc DVD changer for $160, which is what I'm looking for so I looked at it closer. It didn't have a 5 disc drawer though - it turned out to be a $1000 DVD-RAM unit that was mispriced.
Needless to say I picked it up and took it to the checkout. Unfortunately I got the supercashier who can spot a misprice faster than a speeding bullet. He called the manager who eventually told me that he couldn't sell it to me at that price. I decided to give them a break and told the manager instead that I would accept the DVD player for free which he agreed to.
So I didn't get a $1000 player for $160 but I did get a $160 player for free. Works for me.

I've tried to find you so I could thank you for AppBar. I've been using it since I version uh... .99, I think. Even on my newest Athlon machine (which could easily handle a resouce hog) I stick with AppBar.
Just glad I found you so I could say thanks! BTW, love your Hawaii pics. I'm in love with Kauai.
