I wonder what kind of QC corners they cut to get it out for that price... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Oh Wal-Mart, I don't understand why anyone would buy electronics from there...

99$? I swear it was posted for 199$. That's dang cheap.
Ridiculously easy to return from wal-mart, if the electronic was faulty. They basically take back anything. Can't go wrong to try it out for the price.

They only information I could find on the laptop is that it is an Acer, its has a celeron processor (crap), and it has 1 gig of ram (wow). It will likley come with Vista so you are bascally buying a $350 piece of crap

If you see the add, look carefully at the DVD player and the plasma tv. Not available in all stores.

You don't understand but the majority of americans do, and not at high end stores.

People don't understand electronics and integrated circuits in spite that they are surrounded by this daily.

Toshiba - HD DVD
* High-performance SHARC 32-bit floating-point DSP for improved audio performance
******************
Maybe it's this chip; [ADSP-21161N Low Cost 32-Bit SHARC DSP, 100 MHz]
http://www.analog.com/en/prod/0,2877,ADSP%252D21161N,00.html
How much for the chip? If you or I were to make a Toshiba clone, maybe the chip
cost $50. But 1000 piece pricing is $25 each. A big company like Toshiba will buy
more and maybe the cost per chip is $5 each.
Is $100 a good price for the player? Sure it is, but you know the manufacturers are
still raping killer profits.

I always take the MSRP, and divide it by 10 to get the manufactured cost //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif Its actually not too far from the reality...

I knew I saw it there.
