Journal SJS's Journal: ProVantage saves money

So there I was, with too many open projects, contemplating the purchase of a 160GB 2.5" Seagate Momentus drive. This laptop needs more storage, so why be stingy?

A little bit of poking around, and I end up at the ProVantage website. And there they clearly point out that if I want to offer to give them money, I must disable my Javascript-stripping proxy and enable Javascript in my browser.

Nice of them to be so clear about it. It saves me a lot of time and aggravation, plus, since I won't do that, it saves me all that money. I mean, if they don't want my money, that's fine with me, I'm sure I can find something else to spend it on, and it's not like I don't have sufficient projects to consume my time anyway.

So it's a big thank-you to provantage for not wanting to take my money.

Must be nice to be so flush you can treat customers like marks.
