Plus, if you're at work, B&N has same-day shipping in Manhattan.
In theory. In practice, not so far.

If I only had a brain...
That might well be worth it to me. I do wind up buying extra items to hit the 25.00 barrier, and I do really resent waiting for Super Saver items.

I save Amazon for larger orders of things I want but am in no hurry to receive, so for me, not a good deal. (Things I'm in a hurry to receive come from the local B&N, on account of my discount card thing and the close-to-house factor.)
Anyone here migrated from Eudora for the PC to Eudora for Mac? I'm tempted to make this my primary machine, and I have all my Eudora data backed up on the file server, but thus far have not made the push to see about switching over.

I'm not sure what the BN.com threshold for free shipping is
It's also $25. We usually have coupons you can get in-store that will give you $5 off a purchase of $50 or more online, too. (I'm also one of those people who usually falls short of $25, so if I have to add stuff to reach the limit, at least I save a few $ plus my discount.) The new batch of coupons just arrived.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
That program would have been great for me for Christmas (I was doing shopping for 3 people).
Apart from that, nsm.

Liscensing question: If the organization I'm working for has bought a program (in this case, Dreamweaver), for me to do a project (ie-I will be the only one using the software, and they allow me to work from home, can I install the same copy on my home computer, with the understanding that I will uninstall it when I stop working here?

You'd need to check the specific license, but, generally, you can only install it on one machine. Unless it's a server based application, where all you're doing is installing a client.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I remember hearing that you could install Office apps on more than one, but no one could ever prove it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I remember hearing that you could install Office apps on more than one, but no one could ever prove it.
It used to be permissable to install the same copy of Office on both your work and home machine. But I believe they've changed their licensing to prohibit that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, that used to be the rule, two computers, presumed to be work and home or desktop and laptop. But things got more stringent since. Though I still believe in two computers rule, like I believe in fair use of media. Doesn't affect the actual legality.
