Default Best Buy owned me... ( what I bought ) ...

I just picked up :

LG Flatron 17" TFT-LCD Monitor $400 - $120 rebate
Linksys Wireless Broadband Router $59.99 - $60 rebate = FREE
( I had to get it for the roomate cause she needs to hook up off my cable internet. i might just tell her it cost $60 cause shes paying for it ) :rick:
and
Geek Squad Crossover Cable for $23
( I want to teturn it after I use it. In real life its like $2.50 worth of cable, but BB marks that shit up like a bitch! )





So... the main purchase was the monitor cause my old 17" CRT is been getting progressivly more and more blurry. I checked and I dont think its the vid card, but I might get a new one soon anyways.


Good purchase? I told the guy I wasn't sure if this is what I wanted, and he said 14 days return policy.


Should I keep it?
