comments are always my fav. part of these articles......this one being no exception
"What would I give to be a fly on the wall during the executive meeting that brainstormed this idea! It probably went something like this:
HP Exec 1: We need to find a way to market to today's youth. With their hipping and the hopping, something more hip than Apple.
HP Exec 2: What about Rap music? The teenagers love the Rap. They will blindly purchase whatever Rappers endorse.
HP Exec 1: Good idea. Lets get Two-pack.
HP Exec 2: Tupac is dead. He died more than 10 years ago.
HP Exec 1: Oh? Errr...who else was good back then?
HP Exec 2: Dr Dre.
HP Exec 1: Good. Lets sign him up for a $2 million dollar deal. Then we can recuperate the money by overcharging kids for this laptop. Also lets make a logo that looks similar to Target's and stamp it on the back." |

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to run out and buy those $150 Monster Cable ear-buds he endorses.

They have the $350 "studio" headphones at best buy. I swear they feel like they would snap like a twig if you even slightly bent them. |

| How true How true there just isn't any love with a track when it comes to a laptop, I know some people could say the same thing about mp3s but cds don't match it up for you |

So, I was talking about DJing to one of my friends at work just now, and then I started making fun of the "Dre" headphones and how shitty they were and how expensive they are.
Then the lady who sits across from us chimes in and shows me the pair she is using right now. lol - Can't believe someone actually bought them. $350 to listen to music while at your desk? WTF? |

| If you take the HP laptop equivalent and buy the software at retail price, you save around $400 or $500. Pretty cool... |
