uhhh...huh.
So... to be "American" you have to be a tattooed gun toting redneck surrounded by dead animals....and more guns...??

I really don't find this "humorous" at all. in fact I think it's offensive, dangerous propaganda that has no place in a "Tech" forum humour section.

Taking the chopper, the women, the flags, not having one or two guns but a collection, etc. Everything in excess is the epitome of America. This video makes me think of Texas particularly because as they say, "everything is larger in Texas." I think you have to be an American to truley appreciate this video... that this could possibly be an advertisement about "coffee" of all things.

Not sure what your definition of a red neck is nor am I certain why taxidermy is a form of art, but for some reason Americans love to stuff their dead animals and hang them on the wall.

thanks for sticking up for me, but let's not be rude.

All I am saying is that you folks have British humor the rest of us don't really understand, right... something that only British people would recognize for example.?

Agreed. Pushing the envelope with the ignorant political viewpoints again under the guise of "humor." There's so many other things to find humor in without having to go there. I don't know why you keep needing to be reminded. It's getting old.

Was a bit of a jab wasnt it? Sorry for that.

Yes, Our sense of humor is something else eh?
 
One of Walmart's best black friday deals. It comes with a free blue screen but you have to pay extra if you want all the keys for your keyboard.

Let's say this is $800

That's when you negotiate 30% off for Black Friday or Cyber Monday... or the weekend in-between (already applied). Now it's $560

Now you tell them you want 25% off for it being open boxed... Then you tell them that because it is already opened you want 15% more or 40% more. Now it's $336.

Finally, you explain that a keyboard will surely cost at least $150 for the part and 1 hour labor, so $186 will be fair.


You take it and get a new keyboard free of charge from the manufacturer being it's under warranty they mail it out to you... and you do a clean install of windows.

If we say it is a quality $800 laptop and you are a smart technical person that is good at negotiating, this could be a good deal. What avg non technical customer is going to look at this display model that isn't functioning and has keys missing and decide they want to buy this over similar priced models that are working with nothing missing? Even though they wouldn't be buying the display model, I'm surprised they would have it on display like that and expect to sell any of them.

I know I didn't include the price or specs in the pictures, but in reality this is just another one of those cheap $200 windows 10 laptops with a 32 emmc hard drive that nobody should be buying even in good condition. I'm sure it crashed because it ran out of hard drive space already.

LOL!!! Seeing that reminds of something I saw years ago, as in 15+. Sears, in one of their many failed efforts to generate more revenue, had not only started selling PC's, printers, etc, but they also got Apple to let them setup a store within a store, something that had been done at CompUSA and other places. Stopped by the local one one day to check it out. Shelf with 4 Apple laptops, all missing many keys and none working. And the sales people could have cared less.
