If you happen to live near a Micro Center, swing by this month for a great deal on USB memory sticks. I picked up an 8GB model yesterday for $30, although they also have 4GB ($20, black) and 2GB ($14, blue) capacities available. These aren’t as sexy as some of the major brands and don’t provide a retractable USB connector, however they’re dirt cheap. Lately I’ve rediscovered the efficiency in sneakernet-ing content, and this 8GB thumb drive will help me overcome my 1GB memory card inadequacy when moving large files – feeding my Xbox and Catcher, too.

Microcenter has great deals on pretty much everything this month. Looks like they’re trying to clear out the Nvidia 8xxx cards for the new 9XXX series card.
BTW, love the new look, Dave.
Thanks – just messing around for now. I’ll probably flip it back until I have time to finish customizing.
They also have a 8GB JOGR USB FLash Drive Green for $24 + $10 rebate leading to a price of $14.
Even without the rebate $6 cheaper.
Dave — check out the Theme Test Drive plugin for WP.

It lets you change your theme so that only SuperAdmins see the new look (for customization, etc.) and everyone else sees the old theme.
Thanks Jason – I’ve made enough progress that I’m comfortable leaving it up. I’ve got another 10-15 hours of tweaks I want to put it in over the next two weeks.
By the way, John – those are insane prices. Maybe I should pick up a few more drives.
