Except on the booze... LOL, the Mass cops wait on the border to catch you coming out of the NH liquor stores on the highway! LOL

PS: wow, that's all the sales tax is there? We're paying 8.25 % here! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Best Buy and Circuit City are the ones that I go to if they have the thing I want...(not PC related, but like TVs or radios...that kinda crap), but I do not go there first. I shop online to decide what I want, and then check out the stores to see if what I want is available there...That way, I can always return things to them if there is a problem. For example, I bought my USB hub from Office Depot, and then I had an electrical accident that was totally my fault. I took the item back and told them that it got fried, and I got a new one with the manager's consent. Try doing that online or with somebody that is a specialist!

Anyway...dude...don't sweat this stuff man...we'll take good care of you when you get here, right Cloudy? Hehehe
*smirk* Riiiiiight!

I'm sure there will be peopleon campus who can help with the local stuff as well.

Well, apparently the course load for the first year is something like 80 hours/week, so maybe it's a good thing...
