    What, you mean they decided to throw in $5 worth of cables?

    This wouldn't be a big deal if all of the major computer chain stores weren't price fixing their cables. $27 for a USB cable, that's fucking ridiculous. cables4less.com and other sites have them for like $2. Don't tell me the pretty package is worth $25, although you'd think so from how frickin hard those types of packages are to open.

    Anyone know if Fry's has jumped on the "rape your customers" bandwagon yet?
