  • Kannettavan hajonneen kovalevyn saa pitää itse

    “Dell lanseeraa uuden palvelun […], jonka myötä asiakkailla on mahdollisuus kiintolevyn takuukorjauksen yhteydessä lunastaa käytössä oleva, vanha kiintolevy. Perinteisesti vanha kiintolevy on pitänyt vaihdon yhteydessä luovuttaa pois. […] Kiintolevyn lunastaminen vaihdon yhteydessä vähentää merkittävästi riskiä kiintolevyn sisältämien luottamuksellisten tietojen päätymisestä kolmannelle osapuolelle.”

  • If you bought it, you can sell it… right?

    “I paid over $400 for the software last year, and I decided didn’t really like the way the program worked […] So I listed it on eBay complete with the original CD they’d sent me, the key codes for the modules I’d purchased, and the on-disk documentation. I had three days left on the listing and I had a high bid of over $100, which was what I was hoping to receive. That’s when the threatening e-mail started.”
