Heh. brilliant. Although I doubt it costs them that much, I'd like to see the 3000.

A bit stupid if you ask me.. your just causing problems for those who actually need the CD's.

If I was microsoft, I'd adjust the page so that it said in the T&A that in the event more then 10 CD's were sent then you would be billed for all of them at $400 each.

Then watch them laugh about it.

The money wasted by Microsoft on this will be passed on to the consumer.

You'll find these things aren't so funny anymore when you hit puberty.

LOL. Ye you're right, we all know the cut-throat competition Microsoft is facing in the home market right now, it's market share at 97% means that we get great bargains for WinXP but the cost of all these CDs I'm sure will force a price raise from $300 to $400 just to make sure MS keeps their skinny pure profit margin of 50% intact. After all there is a danger that they could go under any minute now, I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that I pray daily asking for the continued existence of this brilliant, shining beacon of Innovation®

Amen.


Ye RIGHT :rolleyes:

Considering you can buy them retail for 12 cents and a jiffy bag is 20 max, he's definitely padding out the cost.

Couple cents with the quantities they buy. Ditto the envelopes. But still, what a tool. Thick too, if he thinks they're individually packed.

If you read on that forum a bit, there's a lot of people attacking for many of the reasons given above. Regardless though Microsoft learnt a lesson from this and adjusted the terms on the site so you can only get a maximum of 10 CDs in case anyone here was trying to do it

ffs
i already said i was sorry
i even went to the blatant lenght of putting the little winking smiley in my original post
if i post anything here again i will be sure to use [tongue in cheek] or [sarcasm] tags wherever neccesary
i know youve all gotten offended that i would post alink to some multinational , multi billion dollar corp getting there leg pulled by some little 13 yr old in america.
and ive apologised already for thinking that youd either think it was funny or think he was a bit of a spa.
calling me names and thinkin im a muppet for posting it is hardly fair is it?
if you found the link offensive report it to a mod or some thing
see if they want it removed.
if on the other hand you were confused by the topic title and think im actually trying to get people to get these cds sent out, then your more stupid than i thought, they only send them out in america.
and to the person who gave me bad rep with the words "oh grow up" attached
thank you for your enlightening cirticism
i will carry it with me in all posts from this day forward.

ps insert [sarcasm] tags in various places around my post for the best affect

Why do you want to cost them money? What have they done to you? I bet you use Windows.
