Today on woot.com they selling that Random Crap Bag. Just wondering, if anyone order it, i'd like to know what you guys got

I managed to get in, the BOC was only on for 1 minute, and 55 seconds.

I scored;

The bag, a small photo-video backpack, about as big as a hat.
A laptop SCSI adapter (PCMCIA) card, with software.
The notorious Virgin wireless, answering machine phone.

And, the real goodie;
An iRiver 5GB MP3 player, refurbed (Rox0rz!) with all the goodies included.

In my (never to be) humble opinion, not bad for $3, plus $5 shipping!

Got my "Refurbished" Power Supply in Nov.. (06)...
It's a CoolMax Model V-500
From Da'Egg....
Nice enough Power Suply
Huge 120 mm Exhaust fan that pulls the Air from INSIDE the case routing it out the back...
The intake is situated almost right above my CPU heatsink...
Pretty Quite too... Hardly can even hear it running what so ever...

Paid 34 and change for the Unit, (free Shipping If I remember correctly)
Then a a 34 dollar MFR'S rebate, (waiting on that still)
So I got a pretty nice 500 Watt Power Supply for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out woot.com today. They have a set of gaming headphones that I think may interest some people here. It looks like they're pretty nice, and they retail for about $80, where woot has them for $40.

Woot off tonight. Just got the email.

WOOT, INC. INTERNAL EMAIL
STAFF EYES ONLY

Attention Woot employees -

We are now entering the final phase of preparations for the Woot-Off planned for midnight tonight. This is when we depart from our usual deal-a-day model and sell one product after another, offering a new deal as soon as the previous one sells out. For some reason, Woot members like [insert your name here] continue to have high expectations for this event. We must make every effort to ensure that they feel disappointed and betrayed.

All workers should be physically and mentally straining to make this Woot-Off a success, like every muscle in a wolf's body strains to capture and devour its prey. We expect total compliance with the following objectives:

* Make sure the stables are thoroughly cleaned and the horses properly groomed and shod. As you know, Commander Rutledge prefers to lead us on horseback during Woot-Offs. Charge!
* Customer Service department: all vacation requests for this week and next are approved. If you have not filed a vacation request, take one anyway.
* The little green pills in the kitchen are there to keep you alert and working. Take as many as you need. Officially, Woot does not believe in the concept of "overdose".
* Take at least one of our servers offline, just for laughs.
* Go to the landfill and dig up some more Sansa media players. If you see any Digipro Graphics Tablets (and you will), grab those, too.
* Place crap bags in company latrines so those orders can be "filled". To this end, the company will provide free lunch today from El Feo, the filthiest burrito joint in Dallas. Do your worst, guys.
* Neutralize all negative thinking among our members. We simply cannot tolerate any more posts like "do not want" or "Woot-Off killer". If electronic means like word filters and IP bans do not work, we must reactivate the rapid-response teams to physically eliminate all threats to our reputation.
* Last time, spot checks revealed that approximately 25% of products shipped are broken, incomplete, or excessively dirty. This is unacceptable. For this Woot-Off, defective shipments must make up at least 40%.
* Remind SmartPost that there's no need to hurry on these orders. Prompt delivery makes our customers spoiled and argumentative. Let them learn humility and gratitude while they wait.


Above all, we must strive to make this Woot-Off even more tedious, disappointing, and lucrative than the last one. The employee who achieves the most toward this end will be rewarded with one brown Zune. Second place: two brown Zunes.

Forward into battle! Remember: to give one's life for Woot is glorious!
