Tech Help Needed: looking to buy some new hardware

[Schultz]

Haven't their battery packs been exploding?

Thanks for the help guys, but as tragedy would have it, my laptop will have to wait another semester -_-, but I'm still trying to find a good mp3 player in the mean time.

I found one on-line; 1 gig of space for 40 bucks plus 10 shipping. I then found one at Wal-Mart for 40 bucks that only has 256 megs, why the big difference. I know the first one was on sell, but it seems like a whole lot bigger deal.

Later guys, & thanks again.

yes but what people fail to put into perspective is the percentage that have exploded to what hasn't..

Its the same as like the Firestone tires on FORDS a few years back or any of the recalls on vehicles. The percentage of it actually happening is very low.
