Or they will replace it with one someone else returned and they tell you is new. :-( I've seen lots of things like that at Fry's. They take returned items and stick them back on the shelf without even bothering to tokenly test them or even make sure all the parts are there. They label it as a return, claiming to have tested it, but they don't actually bother with the testing part. They just hope that the next sucker won't bother to return it. I do occasionally buy from Fry's, but I'm always very careful to inspect things and make sure what I buy is really new. And I never buy the stuff they have labelled as returned. And I have to work really hard at keeping my mouth shut when I listen to their salesmen flat-out lie to people. For sure, if you go there, don't pay any attention to what the salesmen say. -- Richard Maine | Good judgement comes from experience; email: last name at domain . net | experience comes from bad judgement. domain: summertriangle | -- Mark Twain

All I remember is that 5-6 months ago there was one thread in which a bunch of people jumped on her when she made a couple of especially illogical posts, and for some reason she singled Dave out as a target. She's been hounding him ever since. -- <http://designsbymike.biz/macconsultshop.shtml> Mac-themed T-shirts <http://designsbymike.biz/musings.shtml> Mostly muckraking T-shirts <http://designsbymike.biz/prius.shtml> Prius shirts & bumper stickers <http://cafepress.com/comedancing> Ballroom dance-themed shirts & gift
