Black Friday at Wal-Mart revealed?

great idea about this forum ... not sure if this particularly applies here but, seems that wal-mart is going to have a wicked sale soon on some comps and gadgets.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Someone may have let the cat out of Wal-Mart's Black Friday bag early -- and it looks like the No. 1 retailer is ready to aggressively battle on prices in the weeks ahead by going very low on some hot products.

And here's what to expect: A Hewlett-Packard Pavilion ze2308wm notebook computer for $398; an HP Photosmart E317 digital camera for $98.88; a Lexmark all-in-one printer, scanner and copier for $39.88; and a 12-cup coffeemaker, food chopper or 2 qt. slow cooker for just $4.24.

This is going to be...

... a company bash (unless it is absolutely necessary to warn a person about poor tech) and politics free zone.

ALL such posts will be deleted with extreme prejudice.

Got it?

Not to company bash. But just a warning to all who go for a sale:

A free lexmark printer, is not worth receiving. Just saw that name in the post and thought id give a warning, dunno if anyone here has ever tried to use a lexmark...

eep

Hell, the Lexmark Z23 here works just fine. Of course, I don't think they sell it anymore.
