Some of this free stuff is not very free. I just spent the last week attempting to deal with a company that is set up strictly as a rip off scam. They offer a free sample for the cost of shipping. Now they have your credit card. A couple of months later a rather stiff charge is made because you "Joined" their monthly shipment plan.

Rick,

This is a little OT, but at Yugster you can get an Xbox360 HDMI with controller and 60GB HD for $187.97 plus $10 shipping. Would make a great media extender.
