Would it be worth to just pay 10 dollars more and get another dlink 8 port green gigabyte switch?

The 5 speakers (2 front, 2 rear, and center channel) all hook into the sub, the sub hooks into the control unit, and the control units can hook up to your components (compuer, TV, PS3, Xbox, etc.) through digital Coaxial audio, digital Optical audio, or 3 mini stereo line-ins.

I've found Belkin network gear to be somewhat flakey. I would spend $10 more on D-Link so I could set it and then forget about it.

If there's anyone waiting for an IPS monitor the 23" is on sale (best monitor I've ever used, easily)

Checked that out awhile back and all I found were negative to lukewarm reviews.

Normally they'll have pretty good discounts on most of their ultrasharp IPS panel line - they're very good monitors and I'd hold out for one of those.

Much appreciated Mick

Looking for a new inexpensive desktop for the parents - my dad wants a big screen (prefer 24') so hopefully they'll have something! I'm going to hook it up with our other big flat screen monitor to give them the dual experience.

I was thinking that if this monitor is a great deal, I'd buy it and then purchase the tower separately.

Uh, you can probably ignore everything I said if this is for your parents. It's not likely they'd benefit from an IPS panel.

This happened to me around Christmas when I was buying a Harmony remote.

As soon as they sold x amount, the price went up $40.
