Microsoft and AMD hands out laptops with Vista then asks for them back
Microsoft handed out a bunch of laptops to bloggers. They would like them back but only after a nice review, or passing them on to someone else who will review them. Not a bad plan. Our very own Chris Pearson received a chair in a similar fashion. And he really likes it. So does Deuce, the unofficial 901am mascot.
I’m just a bit jealous as I’ve never been sent anything. So if any reputable beer marketers, mead manufacturers, or furniture companies want to send me products I will be more than happy to review them and consume them.

I had the chance to check out the Ferrari laptops at last year’s CES before they were actually sold publicly.
They were freaking awesome, and I think I’d step over my own mother just to get one. Seeing these things doled out for free is as mouth-watering as it is jealousy-inducing.
Microsoft, can I have one?

Have you heard if Microsoft sent out any information suggesting the bloggers disclose the fact they were freebies?
Nice gift anyway….
