hmmm, new owners turning it in to a decent brand, excellent.

They are slowly resprouting around the country. It's just really TigetDirect with a different name. The parent company to TD bought the Compusa name in bankruptcy.

Congrats on the new job fozz! Does this mean you are actually going to settle in one spot? ;)

Scarily, yes.

I think my aspirations for Pplus are gone unless I can find someone to pay for a few J tix to HKG. :D

Congrats on the new gig.

For those looking to add some new music to their collection, may I suggest Broken Bells. Amazon has it on sale today for $4.99. I bought the "The High Road" single a while back and enjoyed it.

If you're into The Shins or Decemberists this = ^

As for CompUSA, the item I ordered was the same price everywhere and they are a) out of state, so no tax and b) offering 12.5% cash back.

Interesting! Cash back?:rolleyes: - from Bing or somewhere else?

For anyone out there using the web-based version of my search tool, I've added a new feature today: recent searches. The system will save and isplay your last five searches for ease of repeatable queries. It is available now on the timetable and flex fares pages and will be on the other methods soon. I know there are a few bugs to still work out, like not having the same entry multiple times on the list, but otherwise I think it is pretty solid. If y'all are wiling to poke at it a bit and see if you can break it or have suggestions for a better way to implement it I'd appreciate the feedback.

All the best on the new job, hope you can enjoy it, and doubt you would have taken it if you did not think you could or would grow to enjoy it. Hope it brings you many fulfilling challenges and keeps your mind sharp, not turning into corporate mush. :D

So far I have been CO free in 2010, I got as far as row 20 on a 752 then turned around and walked back to the door.
