Never buy from CDW!

Would you buy from a company that says this in their ad: "Ah Jim... I think I fried the motherboard... and the fatherboard"

Fatherboard? WTF? Last time I checked there was no such thing as a fatherboard.

Never buy from JustinSampson, who cannot spot a joke this obvious from a mile away!

That's what I was thinking, but the ad seemed targeted toward the average person and they wouldn't know that here isn't such thing.

cdw is never targeted for the average user.. they are targeted for the IT professionals that need a single vendor for alot of products.

Yep.
Now if you had said "Don't buy from CDW b/c their prices suck!"
or "Don't buy from CDW b/c they will constantly flood your snail-mail box with crap!"

I would be inclined to agree with you.
Except for this one VERY IMPORTANT detail:
"If you order stuff from CDW, at the end of the year, they might send you a tin of butter cookies!"

*rushes off to order more crap from CDW at terrible prices

My Bad! I just thought it was one of those stupid ads made by un-informed people, kind of like the Mac ads (well those people might be informed, but they'er plain stupid anyway)

AMongst the reams of crap they send me, I actually got a CD-ROM with those "Jim" commercials on it. As if I'd have enough time at work that I'd bother watching "commercials."
