A Look Inside Newegg

An anonymous reader writes "AnandTech has an interesting look inside Newegg's 180,000 square foot facility. Effectively, they followed the path of an order after it was soon placed online. AnandTech was able to get a tour of their facilities before, but this is the first time they allowed them to publish any photos."

  2. Nice... but let's see their corporate office by b0r1s · · Score: 3, Funny


    As someone who works next door to Buy.com's corporate office (they're in 85, we're in 65, effectively next door) - I'd rather see their corporate office than the warehouse. Come on, how many Ferraris are in the parking lot?

    eriously "A pallet is a wooden or plastic platform that can be picked up using a forklift; palletized cargo is cargo placed on a pallet, which is how Newegg's inventory is shipped to them." is considered a story?

    No, that is considered a "sentence". People called "writers" put together groups of related sentences to form "paragraphs", and groups of related "paragraphs" are what is considered a story.

    Seriously "A pallet is a wooden or plastic platform that can be picked up using a forklift; palletized cargo is cargo placed on a pallet, which is how Newegg's inventory is shipped to them." is considered a story?

    Now, now- don't be so quick to judge.

    I found the statement, 'the automated box maker makes a lot of boxes' to be quite insightful.

    It's like pure untouched snow, just waiting to be pissed on. And I say that with the best of intentions, as every year, I spell out /. in the snow.

    Wouldn't that be a "frost pist" then, not a "frist post"? ;-)
