Once they started selling ASUS products I became a "little bit" interested in Best Buy; however, ASUS computers come from the factory with enough crapware to begin with. I don't need my new computer molested by a geeksquad and have even more crap added to it. Not to mention, it technically isn't new anymore, is it?

I buy all my ASUS laptops from newegg, and will continue to do so.

Lots of private companies have tried to build electric and other high mileage cars, most never succeed.

Several years ago I was closely following a company called ZAP(zero auto pollution). They promised MANY nice affordable electric cars. None have made it or been sold in USA, except one called the Zebra. The one I wanted was call an Obvio.Here is an Article about some of the ZAP stuff. http://blog.wired.com/cars/2008/03/the-zap-x-and-a.html

I think its great that innovative people are trying, and we should help them somehow without getting scammed. Because the truth is most models will never see the general public.

I don't understand the greed if MS sometimes.
They should release one version "Ultimate" for $99 thats it.
If a user wants to scale down to a business, at install tell it and it will reduce the add-ons. If you need a light "CE" version tell it at install and have it strip all the garbage.
At that price point and feature level anyone that would have downloaded or hacked it for free may very well buy it instead. The days of trying to squeeze people for every last penny are over. Evolve to the market you big dumb asses.

I just told 3 different friends to get Seagate drives because they have a 5 Year warranty and Ive never had any problems with them. My sister bought a 1.5 TB Seagate external for pictures and backup reasons. I guess Ill tell her to back up the back up? Quality from all the different manufacturers does seem to be cyclical, and Ive had many WD and Maxtor drives fail on me over the years.
