I’m needing a MacBook Pro USB C charger - anyone know of any specials out there?

Have you tried looking at the Ematic? It has SP Dif, ether net and two USB ports. Only slightly more expensive...

Thanks, looks like a great option!

I would've done the same thing, yes the Mi Box is getting Android 9 but the Ematic already has it and I like Ethernet.

It does seem to be the better deal between the two - I also like the flexibility of the Ethernet and the SPDIF

R1440 + R457 shipping for the 660p, versus R1879 + R42 for a Mushkin Helix-L. Wonder if it's worth the hassle of importing, or if Wootware will drop the price a bit more on Friday...

Evetech 2tb R899.

Shipping to Cape Town is R133, so I wonder if it is "better" to buy from takealot for slightly more - https://www.takealot.com/seagate-expansion-2tb-2-5-portable-hard-drive/PLID38534423

Different brand obviously, and the shipping price is less of an issue if you are multiple items

CNA have that hard drive on a Black Friday special for R999 and the 4TB one for R1399 but I'm not sure whether that is for store purchases or online shopping only.

Not really worried have Ryzen 9 with 2080Ti but last time I investigated these things you needed monster PC to run them. If I look at this it seems as if the unit does all the number crunching?

Ryzen 9 + 2080Ti can handle VR with no problems. I used to run a i5-3550 and 1050Ti on Low ~ Medium with a 1440p VR headset (HP Windows MR)

Has anybody seen any Black Friday offers for Showmax? It doesn't seem that Cellucity will be offering anything this year.

I hope you keep us updated if you do find one. I think I got 12 months for R199 or thereabouts last year
