Most PowerBook sales are scams? I bought recently 2 Pismos and a Lombard
on eBay. While still awaiting the Lombard's arrival, I already have both
the Pismos and am very satisfied. So that clearly disproves Joaquim's
statement! :-)
What he is referring to is the fact that most powerbook titled auctions are actually for 'information' on how to get free or cheap stuff from the government and other businesses. Yes it is false advertising but it is in no way a scam. They say in it that it is for information not a computer. Hell, they show 10 different computers. You think you are getting those computers for $50? Well, then, you fell for it. You will become the laughing stock of the world when you get an envelope in the mail full of papers and not a computer like you thought you were buying.
