:edit: i think the x86 people are scared lol

Defenitly Sounds like Pegasos Discrimanation to me!

If you touch the computers in any PC store I find that a sales rep rushes up to you and either gets upset or asks if you would like assistance. If you aren't there to buy, then they might ask you to leave.

The part I do not understand is how they get upset.. is any product so fragile that a person typing on the keys of a keyboard will break the machine? (That and no sales demonstration boot CDs from the PC manufacturer)

If you ask me, the PC companies should have demonstration PCs placed in the store and have the sales rep ASK YOU to come try the system out. (Unfortunately they would have to pay to do this in the chain stores)

If you go to a car dealer, they ask if you want to test drive a car. Even if you tell them you aren't interested in buying, just looking... they ask "Do you have 15 minutes to take a test drive?"

So you have 15 minutes to spare, take a test drive.. then you want to buy the car!

But you say to the salesperson "I can't afford this right now"

The sales person then shows you that they also sell off lease and used cars for half the price of the new car.

We can follow this kind of sales model with the Pegasos. We already see this kind of marketing with Pegasos2 trade-ups. Let's keep this going!

I've done some veeeerrrry bad things to pc's at computer stores/car shows etc. I have changed my ways somewhat though. muhahaha

i get the IP nubers and play with them hehe

When I was looking for more memory for my Pegasos, I just took it to PC store ("minimum configuration", bare motherboard, HD and PSU , borrowed monitor, keyboard and mouse from "demo machine") and tested memory modules one by one
