What are "BTO Configurations - DO NOT PUSH"


BTO = Built To Order maybe??


Edit -
I suspect lots of cancelled orders, and A LOT of whining from "buyers" to be appearing in this thread in the next few days... Please no bitching about how staples owes you and "you're going to sue!" remarks when they cancel your order... Y'all know this isn't the right price for it by itself.

i think it would have had a chance without people ordering 50 at a time. I felt bad ordering more than one when i requested 3. Oh well, worth a shot, cheaper than playing the lottery.

God damnit, ordering 50 will DEFINITELY get this rejected. :| For the love of God, let's see if we can keep this under the radar. Can't you guys keep it to 5 copy or less? This will most likely get kicked back, but ordering 50 will SURELY get it squashed!

Oh and thanks DealFinderDan! Nice deal! :)

$70 for pro is a good deal too, but not as good $1 for home. This must be a glitch or something in their new site, or you'll get HP restore discs. What does BTO configs - DO NOT PUSH mean?

I asked that a few messages up. My guess is "Built To Order" which makes sense. People would squak about buying Windows XP Home when other companies "include it". And then XP Pro is basically a $69 upgrade. They can't put it as $0 - you know how many people would try to order just it and then complain when they don't get it. Oh wait... I think we'll find that out here shortly actually.

Anyone notice how the part number looks very HP'ish? PQ362AV#ABA but a search at HP does not turn anything up.

I'm in for 10... we will see what happens.
