I don't understand these search results .... weird.

- iMac 3.2Ghz 1TB - MacBook Pro 15" Core i7 2.3Ghz / 256SSD (Work laptop)
- PowerMac G5 - Dual 2.0 Ghz, 3GB, Soundsticks!,
- Lenovo Thinkpad T510 (also a work laptop), Win 7 Enterprise, 8GB, 320GB HDD

It's a bit like Blockbuster, where new releases are strangely interspersed with porn.

After some extensive research (heh) there is no mention of 'treo' or '750' on the page.

I even searched for treo and 750 separately in amazon and neither gave me that hit... which is odd. I wonder what's making their search engine return that as a hit.

Maybe women are buying Treos, selecting the "vibrate/silent" mode, and then putting them in certain places while calling their new Treo phone number?

The Real WTF™ is that you're using Windows.

Office PC, what do you want ?? :-)

Personal machine is a mac.

Why? You don't like that stylish Windows XP interface? Who knew that Vista would manage to make XP look good !?!

That is some massive text.

I also found the woman part disconcerting.

Yeah .. wife and I are planning on going to the Olympics if they ever put the bloody tickets up for sale. I already have a place to stay (courtesy of a friend.) As for my bookmark toolbar, well, good thing I didn't have anything too embarrassing on there .. (smile)

The text is large because I took the screen shot on my company laptop 1920x1200 resolution. (I had to squint to read that.)

Don't buy the used ones, specially if the seller includes an air freshener in the offer.
