1.	Solve : Best Buy, Circuit City Reps Push Unnecessary Recovery Discs?
Answer» When Ian Griffith of Queens, New York, purchased an HP notebook from a Circuit City store in Brooklyn earlier this year, the salesperson urged him to have the chain's in-store FIRE Dog TECHNICIANS create Windows XP recovery discs in case Griffith needed to REINSTALL the OS. "I specifically asked if this was something I could do on my own," Griffith says, and the answer was no. The salesperson, Griffith says, insisted that there were only two ways to obtain such discs: have them made at the store for $30, or buy them from HP for nearly twice as much. LinkIwonder how many people were duped by this. The store denials can be IMMEDIATELY trashed. If it were not policy, so many stores coast-to-coast would not be doing this. It smells like a class action law suite to me.
