It takes several hundred to Tango

The Tango Project makes great looking, open source icons. Or, at least they were trying to. I’ve wanted to use Tango icons in a couple of my projects, but the set was so incomplete, that it seemed pointless.

But no longer! Apparently, a few hundred people danced the night away by filling in these large gaps in the Tango Project.

Makes me wish I were artistic in some way…

Deals of the Week - March 25, 2007

Not that many deals worth even talking about this week.  Just these…

Circuit City

  • Kingston 512MB PC3200 - $30 (59-29 MIR) .. RAM is really falling in price lately.  Time to grab some.
  • Kingston 1GB flash drive - $15 (no MIR).  Flash drives are really handy.

Yawn…

Deals of the Week - March 18, 2007

I haven’t done these deals of the week in a long time, so I thought I’d do another.

CompUSA

CompUSSR’s closings so many stores across the nation (mainly in the West), that many people will be able to reap the benefits of the firesale they’re having. Here’s a complete list of stores that are closing. And they’re celebrating their 23rd anniversary this week. What a way to celebrate. “OK employees, corporate sent all of you two gifts for our anniversary, a clock/radio, and a pink slip.”

Anyway, some deals…
