Now it would be really interesting to see if he actually buys a G5 with it...

i dont understand why people GIVE money away to "creative" eBay auctions. (like mystery envelopes or a piece of plastic with the word THIS written on it for $75)

Some people just have money to burn, and are stupid IMO.

Because there are a lot of stupid people out there. :p
 
Gee... I want an Apple studio display. Why not just give me 1500 bucks? :rolleyes:

Why did he feel that he deserved the 5k?

The video he had up for it was hilarious. I gave him a buck just because of the sheer laugh factor (well, $1.30 with PayPal).

Good on him. I hope he posts a picture of his setup.
 
wow that person who donated $200 should be ashamed of themselves. That's absolutely disgusting to give $200 away to a stranger only to see them blow up a computer or something...jesus people are so stupid...:mad:

It looked as if that was one of his clients - we's a video editor.

Too bad the site has changed since he made the dough, it would all make more sense, then.

Sorry I didn't get anything out of that site, can anyone explain what he is going to blow up?
He does video editing for a living and he needs a new Mac. He thought if he got people to donate money for a G5, he'd blow up his G4 as a reward, basically.
 
The kid is brilliant. He got people to give him $5000. Who cares if people are stupid? I say prey on them. Good for this guy, he now has $5000 and can do whatever he wants.
