Cheap Geek: Blu-Ray Drive, Multifunction Printer, iPhone Cleaning Cloth
Posted in: blu-ray, Today's Chili
I should tell you that there’s talk of turning the Cheap Geek column into a network sitcom. So far it’s just me talking to myself, but I think that qualifies.
1. You don’t need a new computer to view Blu-ray discs. Just update your machine with this internal drive from LG. A high-def powerhouse, it views and burns Blu-ray DVDs, and even shows HD-DVDs. If you bought some HD-DVDs before that format lost the war, you’ll still have a way to view them with this drive. NewEgg.com has it for $179.99 with free shipping.
2. You won’t believe what $40 will get you from Staples.com today. It’s selling refurbished Brother MFC-665CW printers for $39.99 after rebate, with free shipping. Yes, this multifunction has looks that only an office manager could love, but it provides printing, faxing, scanning, a built-in answering machine, and WiFi (802.11b/g) connectivity. It’s everything your office needs for a super-low price.
3. Sometimes the deals in this column cost a bit of money (like the HDTVs), but here’s one everyone can afford. Meritline.com is selling an iPhone screen protector and cleaning cloth for $0.69. To get that price, you’ll need to enter coupon code MLC262010. It even gets free shipping. Now that’s a deal.
