    Batman Arkham City pre order on steam is up! 20% off for some!

    Batman AA and Lego Batman are $10 each, so if you don't own either and buy one to get the 20% off Arkham City it still costs $50 total. Great deal!

    Starcraft II Beta Code free with pre-order at Amazon (ReleaseDate: 07/27/2010)

    Looking at the Amazon 'customer discussions' for Starcraft II, it seems that no one who ordered on the 23rd has gotten a key yet, while people who ordered before and after have.

    Digital converter box

    Probably the best deal would be the $40 off government coupon for the boxes. Only certain (basic) models apply for the discount, but it puts most of them at the $10-20 range after the coupon. You can apply for the coupon here: http://dtv2009.org For your other question, if you were completely...

    How important is 120hz on an LCD?

    120hz is important for watching 24fps (film) material, like most movies. Since most TVs refresh at 60hz, the 24fps needs to be converted to 60fps to match, which is achieved with a 2:3 pulldown. This effectively gives you 4 frames of actual content for every 10 refreshes displayed on the TV...

    Flash mp3 player with best sound quality?

    Digital to analog converter. It's a component built into the mp3 player that outputs the sound to the headphones, so a player with a higher quality D/A converter will output higher quality sound.

    Looking for advice/deals on earbuds (inside ear)

    The Sennheiser CX300 is an excellent choice. I have a pair and I wear them every day. They have phenomenal sound plus they're the only in-ear headphones that I can get to actually stay in my ear. They do block out most outside noise, though, so if you need to be able to hear your surroundings...

    Free Windows Vista, Office, Money and more - Just forfeit your privacy!

    The OEM versions of the disk are either 32 or 64-bit, only the retail versions are both. Since it comes in a paper sleeve instead of a retail box, it could be either version.
