I think I'm going to do this with cars. This is a great idea! 200 bucks a month for a year, then I'll give you the keys to your 'new to you' '96 ford tempo.

So, these people stole the idea from Douglas Adams, who proposed a Hitchhiker's Guide MK II. It had no filters. Since it has no filters, it perceives everything and is thus perceived everywhere/everywhen. So they built one guide and sold it to everyone.

Reminds me of that guy who was selling computers/notebooks with processors that where faster than what Intel had, killer graphics cards that did not exists, etc. Claimed impossible benchmarks. IIRC nobody even received any of the systems/notebook they ordered. I wonder what happened to him. D:

i thought it was a scam. but i expected they would charge you 3k for a $500 computer. since they arent' even shipping computers out they should get nailed hard.
