Unrelated, keep your eyes peeled for any deals on penicillin...

I don't think they discount stuff like that...

Massive multi category woot-off today- been watching woot, computers.woot and electronics.woot.... nothing.

$319 refurb Xbox One that you can get for less first quality on Amazon.

The refurb SB6121 for $29.99 (link) on woot is a steal for those of you on Comcast. I've bought three of these over the last couple of years for family members, and paid more than $45 for each of them, all refurbs.

Amazon had a pretty good Lightning deal for Samsung EVO 512GB SSDs yesterday, and it sold out in minutes.

I have a SB6121 and while I've never had an issue with it, I don't think it can handle above 130Mbps or so.

Postby **NTP66** » Tue Dec 01, 2015 9:29 am

It's rated for 172Mbps, and the only company that I can think of limiting this particular modem to 50Mbps is TWC. You shouldn't have an issue on Comcast, but if you're going for service that high (>100MB), your best bet will be a SB6141 or greater.

Comcast bumped me from 105 to 150 recently and sent a nastygram saying I needed to buy new equipment. I knew that was garbage as this is a Docsis 3.0 modem, but from some digging I did learn that it's speed is more limited than better models.

I've never noticed anything above 130, but obviously that could just be the connection I'm getting (though I did consistently have a 105 signal before).

If you're looking for a new cordless drill kit, Amazon has a Dewalt kit as their Deal of the Day today, and it's a pretty good one ($100 off): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CSDIMXY

lol. This usually always goes down to personal preference with the brand. Makita (which is what I use now), Milwaukee, and Dewalt are my top 3 in terms of cordless power tools. Switched from Craftsman many years ago.

Calling the super is a better deal.

Crazy that we're two weeks away from Black Friday already. This year has flew by. Looking for a 65 inch TV this year.

Target's Black Friday deals are pretty decent. Their pre-Black Friday toys/kids deals were outstanding, too. Bought my daughter her first bicycle and basically all of her birthday and Christmas gifts at one time using their 20% off coupon code, a $10 off $100 code, and the usual RedCard 5% discount. Saved a small fortune that way.

You Black Friday types are nuts. No way I'll ever go out into that mess.

Black Friday stuff is all done online for me, couldn't pay me to step foot in a store.

This, especially since the bigger stores have finally started allowing a majority of their BF deals to be enjoyed online. That wasn't always the case.

slightly above average kit, could get it for a better price though. 2.5 fubars

@count2infinity @slappybrown

Postby **Juice** » Thu Nov 10, 2016 9:38 am

also

Postby **count2infinity** » Thu Nov 10, 2016 9:39 am

phew... glad I didn't pull the trigger. Only 2.5 Fubars? Not worth it.

Source of the post could get it for a better price though

Where?
