Yeah, she sounds like one of those people that needs to be water boarded to learn anything.
Like that Water Boarding F***** sucks

Not that I don't disagree, do what needs be done to protect people everywhere.
But it's just insane the way she comes off.

Giving the government servers the day after 9-11, I'm fine with that.
The NSA possibly intercepting new hardware while in transit and implanting malware so they can spy on the new owners - nope I can never be behind that!
-
@Dashrender "giving"
I can't fault them for it, though I'm enraged by what they were used for. If HP knew anything about that at all, to hell with them.
NSA does intercept hardware in transit, and I agree, it's crap.

Darnitall. The Zotac Magnus EN970 that we really want went on sale at Amazon already and there are just four units left. We literally missed getting one before coming to Nicaragua by about 48 hours. Had it released by Thursday of last week we would have overnighted one and had it all kitted out on Saturday and ready to go. Now we are stuck waiting until mid-December to get one.

Why not have someone spot you, get it ordered, shipped to the states, and then shipped down there. Especially if the price is such a deal?

Never ship to another country like that. Huge cost, huge risk. Could take months to get here, could be ruined by customs, might never make it, and the fees at the border could be as much as the device itself. Everyone recommends shipping things to other countries, never do it. If you can't bring it with you or get it locally, you can't reasonably get it until you live permanently in a country, have a well established address, have connections with the postal service and have tested it on small items many times.

OK so last question then, why not have someone spot you and get it ordered, and just hold on to it.
Save your self a few bucks on the order today.

Don't want to drop all of that money right now and then wait two months just to find out that something better came along. Or worse, run through the warranty period while we have no means of testing it.

Fair enough.
So hijack the countries server infrastructure for your gaming needs
It can't be that difficult being where you are. -
New 17" HP models just came out
6th gen quad
RealSense 3D hardware
GTX 950M stilljust ordered one. Can't take the i7-5500u seriously when the i7-6700HQ is available in the same chassis now.
And now I wait another 3 weeks, sigh.
If anyone else is interested, coupon code Envy25 takes 25% off of them. Mine took off almost $500 ( but went for every upgrade, you can get by a lot cheaper if you don't want the embedded 3D scanner ).
-
It has an embedded 3D scanner? Seriously? LOL That's freaking awesome.
-
Hey @Minion-Queen I think my laptop just fell on the floor.... oh, it's not coming back from that.
-
Oh, and I posted this from my phone, of course.

@scottalanmiller :trollface: That's always fun! I bet next you're going to try and blame the kids??

It's the Intel 3D RealSense hardware, which is a few different embedded cameras and sensors that work in conjunction w/ software, one of the features I saw somewhere was scanning objects into 3D models... sounds pretty sweet, haven't read any reviews yet.

I assumed that that was the "why" people were getting it, but amazed that it is in an Envy laptop!

The more I watch the cooler this looks.
There's one demo of a guy scanning his face into a laptop and then a video game superimposes his likeness onto the main character as he plays it.

Okay, now I want that
