Yeah, I'm beginning to get curious why things have gotten harder to find on
Amazon lately myself. Their shipping is also horrendous... we just got some
new art development software (okay, so we also wanted the AVI manipulation
it grants us) from them. We ordered it two-day air (okay, so it was what we
wanted before the preview copies expired). It took more than that. We're
now having problems getting in touch with them and finding out why it took 3
business days to do that (we ordered it last Saturday, it arrived today).

You might find that the answer to this is "rolling blackouts".

No, in the Seattle area (where Amazon's servers are). Seattle's been hit
decently by the CA blackouts, as they're (by federal order) giving everything
they have extra to California.

Ah, well the problem with that is the servers have backups in more locations
than that... but I think we've had enough of this topic otherwise.
