HotSpring versus McDonald's

[D.P. Roberts]

By the way, I bought my kid a Sansa 250...at $69 dollars witha $30 reabte at office max...it was a great buy at $39.  My kid loves it....it does more then an IPOD....and it stiffenss my kid's backbone!

That may work in the short term, but a few years from now, who will stand behind your Sansa with warranty work and service calls? The only way to buy an MP3 player is to buy an iPod through an authorized Apple dealer!

Wait, no - don't buy an iPod! Get a Sansa from Costco- they're just as good as iPods, only iPod sales people will tell you otherwise! And, Sansas are cheaper because they don't have to play for all those salespeople like Apple does! Plus, with Costco's generous refund policy, you can take it back if it doesn't work!!
