Default Has anyone been at the "Super Computer Sale"?

http://www.supercomputersale.com/Products/products.html


This fair type bargain is in my town(boston) for 3 days, and according to their advertisements, they should have a lot of good deals on computers. But because there are so much stuff, they don't show any of their products and prices on the website. Also, they charge $9 for entering.

If anyone has been there before, and thinks that its a good deal, please reply. Thanks.

I've been to a few of these and they are mostly junk, atleast when I have been.

I went to one in Nashville, and they were trying to sell 4 year old laptops as {Flashing sign}BRAND NEW{/Flashing sign}...lol. What a joke.

There's something like this that comes to Omaha, NE once a year. Like Shakie said, they had old POS computers, and were trying to rip people off with it. When I was at it a 2 years ago, most of the software dated back to DOS.
