They take in returned or damaged items to sell at discounted prices. They even use those big ugly barcode stickers on the side with a 6-digit code that corresponds to what percent off the item is. They go ham on the tape to either prevent theft or because the box is usually torn in half.

Eh, if HP ever made an iPod clone, it would just be an iPod in a cardigan, that was worse. It would've never gone anywhere and nobody would remember it, and they're probably better off just having passive-aggressively slapped their stupid logo on everything iPod for a while. I know it seems like they were held hostage, but really it's for their own good. Go back to your printer market, HP. And test equipment.

I just wanna say, next week my classes are starting for my first year at college getting a degree in electronics, and a big reason why I’m going into that field is because I got so into iPods and old handheld devices thanks to this channel. So thanks for all that you do!

Dank's talking about the Pods again you love to see it

This really shows how much packaging and promotions make or break a product. If HP were the ones selling ipods, in HP packaging with HP promotional material, the ipod probably wouldnt have stuck around too long. Doesnt matter how good the product is, it wouldnt have sold looking like that. Whereas apple can sell absolute shit for hundreds of $'s because they have pretty much mastered marketing and company branding.

My first iPod Shuffle (the white USB thumb drive type) was an iPod+hp model. Funny thing was when I went to trade it in at the Apple Store the employee initially thought I couldn't get any trade-in credit because it was the HP model. Turns out that wasn't the case, but it definitely shows how weird these were - even Apple Store employees were confused! The trade-in was for the 2nd-gen Nano in black (the 8GB model). Absolutely the best iPod ever in my opinion. :)

I have a gripe with Altec too, they sell “waterproof” speakers yet if you leave it water on it for more than like 10 minutes the damn thing rusts like your grandads old tricycle.

@hypertech116

2 жыл бұрын

Old bikes and metal tables rust really badly, I can't believe the steel used in Altec speakers are that low quality, rusts faster than old bikes and tables. Also happened to my WFC core class Optimus Prime (his metal hinge rusted in a few months, I put him in the bathroom bucket and the swimming pool a few times, and I always play in the swimming pool for more than 30 minutes, that hinge held up pretty well) but that thing's a toy, faint rusting like that doesn't matter. The Altec thing is a goddamn speaker advertised to be waterproof. Usually these "stainless" steel stuff only rust if you keep them in a very humid fridge for around a week. Rusting in 11 minutes is a horrendous crime for any kind of steel. Especially when the water is just on the speaker's surface instead of when the whole speaker is in the water.
