alright... situation:
My mom and her bf are in florida and they decided "hey I want a new laptop"
So they go to Staples and there's a HP Pavillion DV7-1232 on sale for 649$.
They ask me if it's decent, I check it out quickly and it seems like a "decent" deal.
Now... here's where the fun starts.
The guy at Staples starts telling them that when they receive the Laptop only one of the 2 cores is activated and they charge 85$ to activate it.
Of course my mom calls me and I'm like WTF? Never heard that before and it's probably a scam cuz honestly, I hate staples and I think their service is crap but whatever...
Is that even possible ? A new laptop with only 1 core activated? in 2009?!?
If for some weird and twisted reason it is... how do you activate a 2nd core?
lol... I'm still laughing at this story it just seems so.. unbeleivable.
