As stated on their “What is Woot?” page, “Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it’s taken on a life of its own.” They offer a different deal everyday, unless there is a “Woot-Off”.

In a “Woot-Off”, an item is put up for sale in limited quantities. Once an item sells out, a new one is put up for sale, and so on. The popularity of the Woot-Off is due largely to the “Random Crap” (also known as the “Bag of Crap”) that usually occurs once at a random time during the Woot-Off. The “Random Crap” is $3 plus $5 shipping. The buyer does not know what they will receive, but it could be anything from an action figure, to a big-screen TV.

Woot also has other sites, such as sellout.woot.com (in partnership with Yahoo), shirt.woot.com, wine.woot.com, and kids.woot.com.

Today Only: Gateway 10.1” Netbook for $269

Ben — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:31:32 +0000

Woot.com, our favorite deal-a-day site, has another deal for you today. For $269 you can pick up a refurbished 10.1” Gateway LT2032 netbook. Remember: this deal is only good until 12am central time! Let’s have a look at the important specs (and be sure to look at our + and – comments for what we think is good or bad on this netbook.)

Windows 7 Starter Edition ( – this is the latest version of Windows, except it is the starter edition which means that there are some limitations such as the inability to change your wallpaper, etc.)
1.6GHz Atom CPU ( – common and fairly slow netbook CPU, but this is what keeps the device cheap)
1GB of RAM
250GB HDD ( + this is a lot of storage space for a small computer, will be plenty if you aren’t using this as a primary media machine)
WiFi b/g ( – not the latest WiFi protocol, but pretty much standard)
6-cell battery ( + this is the extended battery for this notebook )
USB 2.0 x3
Your choice of Black or Red colors (choose at checkout from Woot)

This is definitely a decent deal if you are looking to not spend a lot of cash on a computer. A netbook like this will get you by on the basics, like light web browsing, word processing and watching standard definition media (including YouTube). If you are looking to watch HD content, you’ll need a netbook or notebook with a little more kick, something like the HP Mini 311, which we recently reviewed . Head over to Woot.com for a full list of specs and decide if this deal is right for you!

The IdeaPad Y450 is a simple all-around laptop.

Today Only: HP Entertainment Notebook With Blu-ray and HDMI for $599

Ben — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 10:39:20 +0000

If you are looking for a Blu-ray equipped laptop, Woot.com may have just what you need today. For $599 you can pick up a refurbished HP DV7 17.3” notebook with a built-in Blu-ray player as well as HDMI output to play content on your big screen. Don’t forget that this deal is only good unit 12am central time today (that’s how Woot.com works)! Here is a rundown of the important specs:

17.3” screen with 1600×900 resolution
Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
2.4GHz Dual-Core Turion II M600 CPU
4GB of RAM, upgradable to 8GB
ATI Radeon HD 3200 GPU
500GB HDD
Blu-ray player with LightScribe (burns and reads CDs and DVDs as well)
Multi-card reader (SD, MMC, MS, MS Pro, XD)
USB x4
HDMI output
WiFi b/g

So what do we think about this laptop? It scores points for running the latest OS from Microsoft (Windows 7). Blu-ray player with HDMI output means that even if the screen isn’t full-HD (full HD is 1920×1080), you can output through HDMI to a full-HD HDTV to take full advantage of the Blu-ray drive, though your movies won’t look bad at all on this computer’s spacious 1600×900 17.3” display. A generous 500GB HDD and four USB ports makes this a great desktop-replacement laptop, and the 5 in 1 multi-card reader is likely to function with most of the cards that you can throw at it. The only points that we’ll take off from this deal is that the unit is refurbished and isn’t sporting the latest wireless standard (WiFi n), but if you don’t already have a WiFi n router and aren’t planning on buying one any time soon, then you should have no issues with the included b/g WiFi. Oh and don’t forget… this is a big laptop (7.96lbs), don’t plan on carrying it with you everywhere you go.

Head over to Woot.com to catch the full specifications as well as additional photos.

Today Only: Lenovo IdeaPad Y550 (15.6”) for $519

Ben — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 08:15:31 +0000

One of our favorite deal-a-day sites, Woot.com, has a nice laptop deal for you today. For $519 you’ll score a brand new Lenovo laptop sporting an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU running at 2.1GHz, 4GB of RAM, a 320GB HDD, and a 15.6” screen with a 1366×768 resolution. Probably the only real downside to this deal is that the computer comes with Windows Vista Home Premium, rather than the latest Windows 7 (though it should have no problem upgrading). Though you get a little added bonus with the WiFi which is a/g/n. WiFi n is the latest WiFi protocol which is faster and has longer range than previous a, b, or g protocols (though you’ll need a Wifi n equipped router to make use of this extra speed). Check the bottom of the Woot page for the full specs and don’t forget that this deal will only be available until 11:59pm central time.
