To bid, or not to bid...


To bid, or not to bid: that is the question
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
Not possessing that laptop which doesn't cost a fortune
Or take it into my arms, but means a sea of troubles,
But in fighting hunger, help them

To venture: to purchase;
No more; and by a purchase to say we end
The hunger and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To venture, to purchase;
To purchase: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;


Thoughts:
Ok, I know I'm not much of a poet or spoofer.
Anyway, I pity Sony and America's Second Harvest. The laptops are going for a couple of hundred bucks below the original price. They should have sold it as-is.

Gosh. They're really so cheap. Sooooo tempted......
Impulse buy? :D

But what do I need it for? *scratch head*


Argh.
Kinda reminds me of the joke:
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.

Jessica Alba's laptop is, at this rate, the most expensive of the 5. It might go double the original price.
Oh... and guess what? Looks like a lot of most of the bidders are guys. Teehee.
