If you plan to set your mom up on Facebook as a Mother's Day gift, you might be a cheap geek.
1. Sometimes a deal seems too good, and yet there it is. Get this: Tiger Direct is selling the Westinghouse VM-42F140S 42-inch widescreen monitor for $579.99. It offers 1080p resolution, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, and three HDMI ports. Use it to give yourself a big view of the Web or connect it to your cable or satellite box for home theater viewing. Or do both. Get that big flat screen you've been wanting and thank me later.
2. Can you really buy a notebook with pocket change? Of course, assuming you have hundreds of dollars of coins in your pocket. Trade it all in for this Toshiba L305-S5918 notebook from Frys.com. It runs Windows Vista Home Premium and has an Intel Pentium 2.16-GHz processor, 2GB RAM, and a 160GB hard drive.
3. I'm always looking for new things to feature on Cheap Geek, since let's face it, it's mostly HDTVs and digital cameras. That's why I was excited to see this 45 piece computer tool kit on sale for $19.99 (with free shipping) at NewEgg.com. Be your own IT guy with this handy set.
