The reasoning behind this is that odds are if you're getting a great deal it is because they are clearing inventory for the next biggest better thing, that you wish you would have waited to buy, that is technology. That is why I say, find out what you need, buy at a moderate price and be happy for a while till your necessities increase or you have a wad of cash that has to be spent (unless you want to give it to me). It amazes me that people all but beat malign and become wild savages over technology that the day after they bought it are like...if I would have waited a day, I could have gotten the newest thing for a little more! My wife was recanting some of the war stories of her fellow Walmart employees, even having one customer cling to pallet of goods, and spitting on the employee when they asked them to move so they could open the stuff to sell! Then someone was verbally abusive to my wife the next day when she was marking it all down an additional amount, saying "I stood in line and fought to get this stuff, just to have you mark it down?". Yes, welcome to the world of commerce, and it is the same in the tech world. You get exactly what you pay for, you want a deal call a Partner company, like me for Cisco and Microsoft, I get great deals...because I spend alot of money with those companies, and have contracts that provide the upgrades etc. They give me great deals because the money from me for them is not on the product, but in the service contracts I buy, for replacements and software upgrades, and then I can pass the savings on to my customers.
So the moral of the story is, if you need tech, just go buy it at a reasonable price and feel good knowing it is yours...no matter what you do it will be replaced in 6 months.
