(un)OFFICIAL BLACK FRIDAY Thread
« on: November 27, 2009, 03:05 PM »
Please post to this thread items that are sold ONLINE and are related to computer SOFTWARE and are on sale TODAY ONLY.


update:::

By popular demand: Amended to include Cyber Monday.

The idea is that these are different from ongoing deals, and we can close this thread after Monday evening.

Sunbelt has a Black Friday sale on today - VIPRE AV and AS is $9.95 single and $19.95 for home licenses.

http://www.vipreantivirus.com/blackfriday/

Well worth it, in my opinion. The really nice thing is that if you have time remaining on a current subscription, you can buy now and apply the new license later and it will be good for a full 12 months from the date of activation  :Thmbsup:

Would this be considered the cyber monday thread? 2 years ago the online retailers started doing cyber monday as a subsidy to black friday. Thoughts?

Rollback Rx 9.1, for $29.95 (Black Friday only, a few hours left).

Not a personal endorsement of the product though. I had some issues with its older versions (I stopped using it after v. 8.1). The just released version (out a week ago) does seem to be compatible with Windows 7 as advertised, but I've only used it for a couple of days.
