This is a joke, right? I mean, it's satire - showing by example risk of spam other users have been warning about? Sorry to add to an OT thread which has been going on for too long already, but also please remember that some of us don't reside in the United States. I don't know about the Dell offer but I had a quick look at the urls supplied above and saw that they were almost unanimously for American residents only. Why don't I start sending in every link I see for cheap deals for U.K. citizens? And so on? Huh? As far as I am aware this list isn't moderated. So let's be nice, and not make it so that it needs to be.
