Black Friday 2010: The Aftermath

Black Friday – that special day in November when deals on everything and anything abound. My Black Friday adventure this year, of course, was computers/electronics-oriented. Here’s a list of my shopping spoils.

Best Buy (believe it or not, this big box store actually does have some good deals from time to time)

• Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM hard drive, retail package (most likely a WD1001FALS in the box) – $59.99

Fry’s Electronics

• Antec EarthWatts 750W – $65 – $30 rebate = $35
• Samsung 2494LW 23.6” monitor – $149.99
• Asus 24X DVD burner, $29.99 – $25 rebate = $4.99
• Zalman Z7 Plus ATX computer case, $48.00 – $40 rebate = $8 (!)

The WD Caviar Black deal was quite good, especially considering the fact that it’s at Best Buy and a boxed retail version. Fry’s had some unbelievably good deals this year – where else are you going to get a 750W name brand PSU for that amount? Or a DVD burner for $4.99? And a name brand mid-tower computer case for $8 whopping dollars? Simply amazing.

Of course, those rebates are a pain to fill out, but as long as nothing goes wrong I’ll get my money back in due time.

John The Ripper 1.7.6 jumbo for Windows x86

Here’s a jumbo build of John the Ripper 1.7.6 compiled using MinGW/GCC 4.5.0. Revision 7 of the jumbo patch and OpenSSL 1.0.0 were used.

transcode tools for Windows (version 1.1.5)

I’ve prepared a Windows/Cygwin build of the following tools from transcode 1.1.5:

• avifix
• aviindex
• avimerge
• avisplit
• avisync
• tcmodinfo
• tcmp3cut
• tcyait

Only avimerge has been tested extensively. I take no credit except for performing the compilation.

FLAC.exe for Windows x64

I was messing around with the mingw-w64 cross-compilers for Fedora, and got a bit carried away. The result? a 64-bit build of FLAC for Windows.

http://www.box.net/shared/aabhhqin0j

This 64-bit build seems to be about 20% faster than vanilla FLAC.

Of course, I take no credit other than for compilation.
