Yesterday I saw it on the shelf all discounted for $999. A sales rep guy told me it was a display model and since it had Windows Vista they were replacing it with the exact same PC but with Windows 7 out on the floor. I was all hell yeah I might come back for that!
Then today I went back and this other sales rep was telling me some guy bought it new out of the box, and had it for 3 days, and somehow got like 6000 virus files on it and brought it back, and the manager who was on shift gave him ANOTHER ONE, instead of just fixing his firs one. So they wiped it clean and marked it way the hell down.
Two different stories, but who gives a damn right? For 3 days Futureshops having a sale where if you spend $1000+ you get $100 off. I also had a $200 gift card from my birthday that I hadnt used yet. Then they said for $40 extra they would update it to Windows 7 Home Premium. Its going to take them like two days to put W7 on though, which is bullcrap. I told the girl "Can I just take the windows 7 disc your going to give me anyway, and I can do it at home myself so I dont have to wait two days?". Shes says that to do that shed have to charge me full price for W7 instead of the $40 for them to do it. Its retarded but whatever.
They probably install their own ****ty bloat-ware like they always do on pre-built PCs, so Ill probbaly do a fresh install when I get it home myself. Im also paranoid that they will somehow sabotage it while its there for two dyas because I didnt want their stupid extended warranty that was like an extra $300 for 4 years. Bastards.
Now I dont know what to do with my current computer! Im debating on if I should sell it or keep it around for whatever reason.
