Nice Xmas present to myself

Let this be a lesson in why you want to proof-read anything you put on a webpage if you're selling something from it...

Newfirewall2

Went looking for a new firewall yesterday for my home, as we're going to be adding a couple of additional computers that the children will be using. Since they won't be directly supervised while using them a good portion of the time, I've invested in a content filter and I wanted to get a firewall appliance as well. Now I know Checkpoint makes a quality appliance as we use them in the rather large enterprise I manage at work. So I thought I'd check one of my favorite discount sites to see if they might have a refurb or something for sale.

Lo and behold, I came upon this little gem. Listed at $149 was this enterprise class appliance...something that was really much more than I need, but less than half the price of the class of device I was looking for. So after checking around to make sure it was the deal I thought it was, I immediately purchased it.

Today I decided to check the website to see how the order was progressing and found item in the picture. It seems they've discovered their error and the device is now "out of stock" but set for the correct price point...$1029.

I fairly certain that they will honor the price as they're a reputable company, so I'm feeling pretty good about the purchase and thought I'd share. Check those sites carefully...you never know what gem you might find.

peace,
