I decided to post a question to see if he'll respond:

Quote:
Why would I want to pay $2500 for a P4 3.4GHz laptop that will get 1.5 hrs. battery life (if I'm lucky), when I can get a system with an Athlon 64 3700+, and the same HD, RAM, for the same price? I should mention that the Athlon machine will get a minimum of 2.5 hours and outrun this Dell at every step of the way.

My second question is how do you expect to sell this laptop when you insult the very people who are inquiring about it? Do you treat co-workers or customers at your job in this fashion?

While we're on the topic of false advertising and eBay ripoffs, take a look at this sale:

GATEWAY 7405GX AMD ATHLON 2GHZ MOBILE CENTRINO LAPTOP

Yes, that's the actual title of the auction...

If I was him i'd get a centrino sticker and stick it on there. That would really make it official.

This is too funny... looks like GamingTechy might be someone who would buy it... I don't understand though... I was reading some of this other posts and he seems like a smart person... but how could anyone other then someone illiterate to computers think that a 3.4 P4 can "smoke" a 2.13 PM?

I wanna sign up for an eBay account just to flame the shit outta this guy. Someone give him a link to this thread (if you havn't already).

here is what i just sent him, see if he replies with a bunch of bs or if he tell the truth at all: I am very interested in getting a gaming notebook. I am very interested in the Acer ferrari 4005 which is around $2000, but this has a much faster clock speed, but it is also costs more money. I also want something with a good battery life, so how long does this notebook last on battery because I would want it to be better than the Acer's 3 and a half hours. The 2 gigs of ram sounds really good,that is expensive and hard to find. That 9700 card seems better because it is agp instead of express PCI. I am amazed you could have a 7200rpm drive, because the Acer one has a 5400. Thank you for your help, I really am leaning to getting this really great laptop, but I would like these things cleared up. Everything on the Dell seems better, it is just a matter of wether the price difference is worth it or not.

And a sidenote: I am getting my ferrari tommorow just so you know this is just to screw with him.

HE POSTED MY QUESTION YAYYYY:

Q: Hey there my name is Richard Simmons, i have seen your xpx and am very intereted in it. I need it urgently for a friend in Calefornia. Will you accept 2200$ plus 400$ shipping to Calerfornia for a Friend of mine studying people in Nigeriz. Your urgency in this matter is mostly requestid thancs so much, Lil Richard Jun-22-05


A: Thanks for the joke rockinfella...you are the first person with a keen sense of humor to write to me (albeit tongue in cheek). Actually I think someone for deepest Nigeria should get this computer so they can make a study of the vast number of frustrated nerds who waste their entire day complaining about the price of a computer they can't afford even if it went down to a bargain basement price (which this one will NOT I hasten to add!). But thanks for the laugh... I actually appreciated it.

This thread is soo funny, without the Nigerian guys ebay would be boring. I think everyone should click on 'Watch this item' and get him to think loads of people are interested in it.

I just noticed this:

"I know can get it if I look at the BIOS or crack open the machine but neither of those are a smart thing to do."
What is wrong with looking at the BIOS?

Interesting noteon the "Athlon 64 centrino" laptop I mentioned above - the auction has been pulled from the site:

Quote:
The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale.
