Stupid Deal of the Day

Literally, that's the name of one of my favorite web pages. Reason being, it's a page at Musician's Friend. Every morning they have something which somebody needs, at a blowout price.

Today it's a freakin' Tascam 4-track digital Pocketstudio. MSRP $279, normal price $199.99, today $99.99.

I've got my Zoom H4. Now you can get this for a... well, a stupid deal.

Any other good prices out there, as we slowly careen toward Black Friday?

Westinghouse Has Low-Cost DIY Home Solar Kits -- NOW

This dKos article collects links to the product page, press release, and some very interesting numbers, which basically say that a 4-panel kit, going for between several hundred and a couple thousand dollars depending on where you are and what the government energy credits are like, will pay for itself in two to four years. And the comments go over a lot of the tech, practical problems, and additional points such as DC storage. (No, not the comic books, silly.)

This is exciting.
