Buying a place in line and a piece of hyped-up sure-to-be-full-of-bugs technology: $1400.

My fully-functioning Motorola i730, Frankensteined together from two bought with different problems from yard sales: $15

Not being a sheep who places undue importance to an overpriced piece of overhyped technology: Priceless.

I. hate. people.

And this is a prime example of why.

I'm glad her plan backfired, that was halarious!!!! Stuck up chick thought she was going to rape people for their money hahahaha. And I gotta agree with fierce critter about people's misplaced feelings of importance on inatimate objects.

I really want a Wii so very bad still, but I'm not going to pay anything over $200 for one. As far as phone's go. No phone is worth over $200 to pay. And no plan should go past $80 a month IMO. Who in their right mind would want to shell out that much money for a phone anyway. They sell fully functional desktops with more bells and whistles than that phone for $600.. like come on people, JUST BUY A FUCKING COMPUTER ALREADY, YOU DON'T NEED TO CHECK YOUR DAMN E-MAIL WHILE DRIVING. I so can't wait to see that be a problem in accidents... you know people are gonna do it.

I have a Smartphone running Windows Moble 5. I played with a iPhone today.. It was a neat toy for trendy people. I'd rather stick with a phone that allowes me to do my business along with fucking off and listending to music. The heat they generate is what scares me the most though. Electronics and heat dont mix.

Damn. Can't believe what some people are paying for using a phone.

I never go above my minutes, at $39.99 a month.

Heh. Guess I just don't know that many people.

Anyway, I hate being on the phone. I'd rather get together face-to-face.

Same here,phones suck,unfortunately you have to have one.

I have to admit.. I really do want an iPhone, but I won't pay that much for one. Well, I would if I didn't have a family and other responsibilities. I'm a mac girl, so it's definitely something I would love to have. What people are paying/doing to get them is absurd though.

Yes, a definite rule - always avoid the first gen.

Um, all the insides of a Mac are exactly the same thing as in a PC... The big differeance anymore is the OS and Mac's severe limitations on what hardware your allowed to use.

That's also a big positive. Less combinations = less possible conflicts and other fuck ups. Some people would rather have reliability over being able to use any damn piece of hardware. People go back and forth over this. Their all just different compromises. And you keep saying the OS is different like it's nothing. The OS is what you interact with. Like tires are to a car. It's a huge part of the equation.

Well said!! I wasn't going to get into a big debate my first day back from the grave. :wink

Finally! I have found a laptop I don't have to replace once a year!

Seriously, 4 Windows based laptops in 4 years (top of the line too at the time they were purchased) ... had this one (a MacBook bought brand new in October) for 8 months without a single issue! By now I was hauling the others back to Best Buy to be shipped out or replaced about 4 times by now ...

That's all good if you can fork out $1500 for a laptop every year ... and deal without it for half the year because it's being worked on ... but why not pay the same and not be without it, unless you accidently leave it at home ...

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

    • I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.  
    • You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.
    • Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
