$189?! How on earth? Did it "fall off the truck" or something?
No, but it probably didn't add anything to the bottom line. CompUSA had 10 of them at $389 with a $200 rebate. "Pretty good" means "not top of the line", but not "will be obsolete tomorrow" either. No monitor, no speakers, no printer.
They sold out as fast as the people lined up outside could get in...by the time I got there after church, it was long over.
It got the store some added traffic, I imagine.
