Dell Pricing

What's up with Dell's pricing??? I work for a company that is a dell partner and has a dell premier account. I checked our pricing for the new Dell 3008wfp with 5 year warranty. Our cost 1574.25 on a 2099.00 monitor. I thought great, contacted out dell rep to see about putting this on my person DPA. He said I would have to call the home sales department and ask if there are any internal deals. I did and even a dell rep offered me 1589 shipped if his manager approved it. I get a call back late in the evening saying they would only do 10 percent off!
If it wasn't for the pain meds (back issues) I'm on and a few beers I would haver really gone after dell about this. They whould only give me 10 percent off and charge me shipping, tax and 21.5 percent financing on top of it all.
Thanks Dell!

I've modified the NukeC_DF module fixing most of the bugs, and renaming it to classifieds. I made a lot of changes to the code and database and I actually plan on doing some more additions to the code sometime down the road.

Multimedia in Dragonfly cms

I programmed a down and dirty modification for the Coppermine photo gallery in the Dragonfly (aka CPG-Nuke) cms. This modification will allow multimedia files such as swf, mpg, avi, mp3, pdf and others to be uploaded and cataloged in the coppermine photo gallery. This is only for Dragonfly version 9.0.6.1
This mod is available in the downloads section.
*As with any upgrade/modification you should back up the replaced files.

Another complaint about netflix! I shipped back a movie on a monday, they check it in on tuesday morning, wednsday night I get an email for sat delivery. Well I finally get it tuesday from CA! Of course I wrote a letter to netflix about it and recieved the normal apologetic letter in return. When I returned it, 2 days later I get an email saying it was received and the next movie they sent came from nevada, arghhhh!!!!
I did give them some suggestions like notifying members in the queue if a movie is not available in state so members can better organize the time the get that movie at a latter date. But the less movies you get a month is more money they save!

Netflix Shipping and Receiving
Posted by gummi

I've been with netflix exactly 2 months now and have been seeing movies taking longer to be checked in. In fact I dropped my last one off at the post office Thursday and they most likely had it Friday. I received an email saying they received it today. Today is a postal holiday, 1.16.06, is Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday.
Well it's evident someone went to work without there coffee this morning and forgot it's a holiday. Google-ing "Netflix Shipping and Receiving" I see this throttling is common practice, some say blockbuster is better some say it's even worse than netflix.
I think they should offer a series of truly unlimited plans that allow the next day shipping & receiving but we pay all or part of the shipping. That way you can get 2 movies a week on the cheapest plan!
UPDATE: Well somehow I got the next movie on tuesday, I guess it went out early morning tuesday (like 1am). Still, every disc I received took one day, while check-in takes two or three days.
