Anyone want to buy a google cr-48 netbook?

[themoose]

They happened to send me a second one! Go figure! Thinking 400, maybe less depending on offers.

[thaddeussmith]

you mean the one you got for free (twice)? I'll cover shipping costs...

[themoose]

yup, got it for free, but I'm not google.

[thaddeussmith]

i've got $40 on the table..

[themoose]

That's a good place for it!

[thaddeussmith]

You drive a hard bargain ..$50 - should cover shipping, gas and time for your trip to the post office. I'll even throw in $1.50 to cover the paypal charges.

i'm not playing morality police ..i just think it's a dick move that you get two laptops for free while others signed up and never heard a peep and instead of paying it forward you try and sell it at retail prices.

Wait till he finds out that google can track both computers. Duh....I wonder what they will do. My guess is frag them both. But hey broadcasting a ripoff on the web always makes it easier to find the culprit.

[themoose]

And your point? You either want it or you don't. If google had that much heartache about it they'd be quashing the craigslist and ebay adds on a daily basis.

[Richard]

My point is dummy:You agreed to abide by a contract. See previous post. You actually received a spare unit and are trying to profit by it. That is your choice. But apparently you know nothing about tracking computers online. Why should google wasste time with ebay or craigslist??? They know where the laptops are. They can go the MS way and send a letter threating to sue. Or the google way is to frag the unit. But hey your attitude is the same as valuables falling off a truck and keeping them or a bank teller or cashier making a mistake that you realize and saying nothing. And duh... You realize you have admitted to trying to sell stolen merchandice on the web... Really smart. I believe google has two years to report the theft.... Good luck

[themoose]

Wow, by that last post you know absolutely nothing about computer security, tracking or anything else computer related for that matter. I'm surprised you can work a mouse or keyboard! Go put your tin foil hat back on.

i dont really agree with any of that ..i just think it's a dick move. can't fault you for pursuing capitalism; everyone else is.

I was going to do actual work today but this is much more entertaining. As long as you would have gotten creative with the offers, even belly button lint, I'd have probably taken it. Hell, this is a 2002 board, offer parts or something.
