Best Buy is advertising a Samsung 50" LED 1920x1080 TV at $199 each. I
wouldn't mind getting six of those and wall mounting them, connecting
them to a desktop PC showing all sorts of network monitoring stuff.
Wall mounts for one-axis (tilt) from monoprice are relatively
inexpensive, it's just a thick chunk of steel from China.
I'm not going to stand in line for them, I don't care about it that much.

I worked retail in high school & college, and every Black Friday,
we'd put up some signs saying we were having deals, but everything
was the same price.
The lines from the cash registers would line up to the back of the
store, people waiting in line to pay the same price they'd pay the
week before or after. Never understood it ;)

Man I guess I wasn't sticking my tongue into my cheek far
enough ;-)
It is kinda interesting the analysis and psychology that goes
into the
BF "deals".
