During insane Christmas deals, you’ll see Amazon slow down. Sometimes even get 500-level error codes. Never have I just seen it dead in the water with a web server error…
The images are loading a little slow now, but it seems to be back up. Just weird.

I seriously doubt it was actually the case, but PS3Fanboy.com says it was because the new Metal Gear Solid PS3 bundle went on sale today…
