Mainly inconvenience in that I was buying it through a friend (employee discount! W00t!) and it wouldn't go through, I had to call my bank, then call him back, etc. I appreciate that they monitor this stuff now but it would have been better in this case (from a consumer standpoint) to push it through, then call me about it. It was a week after Tax day so I figured they'd put 2 and 2 together. :) -Matt -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
