I may have had bad luck, but the last time I shopped there, the customer experience was horrible. I had a new tenant coming in, so perhaps I was buying more than a usual purchase, but an app that let me know where to pick up all the parts

I used to use the original flot, but lately, we've been playing with jqplot. How do you feel this compares? I like the plug-in system in jqplot and recently we added 2D plots (heatmaps) in our local version.
