ok..first lets go with kowenicki - i didnt say i expect moderation, im asking if there was some that i didnt hear about that made it a rule to not call the elites pricecut a pricecut, and i didnt hear about it. And your asking "who" says it didnt get a pricecut? you hav 10K+ post on this site, i have a little over 10, and i hav seen at least 4 diff people, in one thread alone say "the price cut was not real" and "the price cut was not official", so im willing to bet, you ureself hav had the "pleasure" of seeing a few of these people also.
Torrillian-you made it very clear that there was no ruling, and the point is the elite is $100 cheaper than it was before...duznt matter if it wasnt as "effective", as something else. these ppl flat out say there is no "real" pricecut, which is a rather incorrect thing to do.
and now RAZurrection...umm...with "a hard drive"...plz..what was the entry price of "the elite" on jan 1st 2009, $399, what was the entry price of the elite on jan 1st 2010, $299 - difference $100. dnt try and twist things to appear as they do not...
and even still...the storage increased...so...if i buy car x for y dollars and sumone else buys car x+1 for y+1 dollars, but later on a third person buys car x+1 for y dollars, and car x is discontinued...ure saying, that car x+1 didnt get a price cut, because the difference between car x and car x+1, was the paint job and automatic vs manual windows ???
