#6, define what is meant by "runs great"?
All HDDs run great if operating within specs.

Sorry you missed the $65 deal for the WD 1TB My Books at Best Buy. They're for Mac but can be reformatted for PC. My local store was out, so they shipped two for ten bucks and didn't charge tax for some reason, though they came from a local warehouse.

#4, may as well get used to it. With state revenues in freefall, it's only a matter of time before every retailer will be forced to collect sales tax on shipments to every state, regardless of the retailer's location.
My guess: 12-18 months on the outside before this becomes reality.

California sales tax and you have to wait for a rebate; no thanks.

It has been about this price on ZZF for a while now. Their rebates always make it questionable.
