Agree, but even through mail -order you get a 30 day return policy, not 31,
or 32 or 35.

buying a dept store computer is essentially getting 3months old technology
at
inflated prices. but for a first time buyer it represents convenience as
they will
be able to bother customer service and  the salespeople when their mouse
doesnt function as a foot pedal, or they have not a clue as to how to engage
the modem to do a call out, plus being able to haul it in when it is truly
malfunctioning.
