I would've went that route, but, I'm a first year college student. The laptop should last me for a year or so. BUT, to think of it I should just take my desktop. I've got about a $1,500 desktop that I'm using right now.

just FYI.

the abbriviation CPU, stands for central processing unit.

do a little reading and you might figure out what the hell you are even trying to elaborate to other people without sounding quite ignorant in the first place.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU

what you are trying to say to us unknowingly, is best buy sold you a tiny piece of eletronic hardware that can do nothing on its own, much less even fit a dvd inside it. they look like this, and are roughly 2" x 2" square.

... a CPU does not mean laptop computer. a CPU does not mean desktop computer. a cpu is a piece of a computer.

so if you were 'conned' into buying a cpu, hats off to the guys at best buy.

Hat's off to you for elaborating what 'CPU' stands for. I appreciate that you had time to come and post a piece of intelligent information~honestly. I simply come in here to rant about my bad experience at my local Best Buy store, yet I should have know that someone, somehow, would come and show my ignorance. Please excuse it. I'm sure the fine guys on this forum, especially the fellows who posted some humor in my thread know exactly what I was referring to. Well, guess I take a //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/blackeye.gif.66a1670f5aaf7f406e783a63e3387dc5.gif on this one. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif

And how does the tax free save you $100 on a $450 purchase? Do you know math?

um 9% of $450 = $100 duh.........

$450-9%=409.50 (Savings of $40.50)

Actually, I never said 9% of $450 was $100. I know math buddy. I simply said I could've saved $100 if they had the other brand laptop. Please read that post over, maybe you'll see then, OR, maybe I simply mistyped, but we all make mistakes, at least I hope so.

Just go in, ask to talk to a manager, explain the situation, and I'm sure they'll correct it. If they don't, then feel free to continue on w/ the thread ...

End thread right here. Problem solved, they saw their mistake and fixed it.
