AI Thread Summary
Pricewatch.com is a valuable resource for finding the best prices on electronics, allowing users to compare costs from various retailers, including Newegg.com, which is noted for its competitive pricing despite having a less user-friendly website.

Additionally, Buy.com is highlighted for its fast shipping, with some products delivered in under 24 hours from its Pittsburgh warehouse.

Ordering clothes and books..not a problem! Hardware? I guess I still enjoy the thrill of handling the electronics before making a possible purchase.

I'll definitely check out these sites, though.

And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
