From the wonders found on e-bay.com

I'm sure you all have seen all sorts of different gimmicks and strange devices being invented by an increasing number of companies, and I mean anything that could cross your worried mind, somebody has thought of it and probably already has it for sale. Things such as USB Slippers, flying alarm clock, that takes off and doesn't allow you to stop it from ringing, thus getting you out of bet to shut it off, a computer build inside a beaver, a dead one I assumed, and so on.

Well, in this line of interesting and often useless inventions, one man took it to himself to make a practical offer, one that would benefit the user, and become attractive enough so that somebody would buy the product and rid him of the burden. The story the guy is selling is that he purchased not one but two Dell E1505 notebooks, one for himself and one for the wifey, and "she needs something that weights less and is smaller." As a show of good will, he says that "its been more than 14 days since I have had the notebook and now I can't return it."

Interesting enough that he says he has it for more than 14 days, but doesn't say exactly how many days have passed since the purchase. The big attraction for the model is actually the fact that it comes with 6 operating systems already installed and configured. These OS's are Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows Vista Premium, Linux Ubuntu 6.10, Linux OpenSuSE 10.2, Linux Fedora Core 6 and Linux Freespire. The price for the packet is $999, and still comes with a full 1 year warranty, one year had in the moment of the purchase, and correct me if I am mistaken, but isn't warranty the one thing that you cannot pass to somebody else? You really should check this guy out, you can find him and his product here, he's mixed things up a little bit, under Condition, it says "new, sealed in box", and underneath is a photo of the notebook and of all the CDs lined up. And, how are you going to install and configure all those OS's without opening the box, I guess he must have a trick up his sleeve.
