CNet posted a story about Wal-Mart selling a really lame laptop, but for only $298, today only. Check out some of the comments:
– Of course people who shop at Wal-Mart will buy this laptop along with their Happy Meal and churro. Ahhh…happy times…happy times.
- Where else can you buy a hammer, rawhide chews, grass seed, frozen chicken thighs, tomato sauce, tomato paste, Marvel action figures, Call of Duty 4 for the PC, Resistance 2 for the PS3, socks, boxers, 5 spiral notebooks,
bologna, cheddar cheese, etc. etc. at 2:30 in the morning? Aaaaaaah, truly these are happy times….- The biggest question is will it have Windows? A few years ago WalMart did this on Black Friday and they all had Linux on them… SURPRISE! Unfortunately the audience Walmart is targeting can barely handle computing let alone Linux.
- Yeah, CNET is fine, but your review of this machine is elitist and unfair. I own a sub franchise in case you wonder if I’m some hack for WalMart or Compaq.
And my favorite:
Wow Dan Ackerman. You certainly are a horrible person. I can’t believe Cnet lets a snob like you write for them.
The Internet is a wonderful place.
