News - First place in iPad2 queue on sale for $800

[HEXUS]

Now this is just getting silly.

Read more.

They just don't get queueing over there. *shakes head*

Buyer of said place in queue would still be considered pushing in and thus unable to retain the place they just bought

[chelseascum]

Rather gives the lie to the theory that the reason people will buy the iPad2 because of price.

They'll buy it because of "ZOMG A NEW APPLE!! I WANT STEVE JOBS' BABIES!!1"

If they are retarded enough to pay $600 for a device that can't do anything remotely well, then they are probably dumb enough to pay to be the 'first'.

I love stuff like that. I can never write it though XD

Whats the -gt stand for?
For some reason I believe that to be C++ (am I right?)

It's the Greater-Than switch.

Bash shell script.

This is pretty sad. The iPad 2 might be a nice bit of kit, but it's not that hard to wait a few days/weeks to get hold of one.
