to the guy who had his order cancelled: if you printed your final order with the $ amount next to it, call HP and tell them you want what your ordered and that you have proof that you ordered that, and they changed it. that's backing out on a sealed contract..

that's like going to a grocery store, buying everything on sale, and before you get out of the door they tack on the rest of the money because it went off sale before you got out of the store. right :laugh:

you sure? cuz if so, then that's hella cool. do you know how I can go about doing this? I have the printed order right here stapled to my wall and I have been just staring at it...

Help a brother out! :yes:

They have every right to cancel orders and I am 100% that somewhere you'll find a disclaimer or terms of service that says that they can cancel orders due to pricing errors. This in not uncommon and infact you'll find it on just about every website that sells products. I check out certain forums where links to deals are posted and you'll find deals that are pricing errors and once the company notices the error they cancel all orders and fix the error. The real difference in this situation is that the people who have already gotten their orders are typically considered a loss by the company and a lesson learned, I've never heard of a company invoicing someone for their mistake or trying to get their product back.

Prices, promotions, specifications, availability and terms of offers may change without notice. Despite our best efforts, a small number of items may contain pricing, typography, or photography errors. Correct prices and promotions are validated at the time your order is placed. Please note these policies apply only to products sold by hpshopping.com; reseller offers may vary.

hey guys, a friend of mine just linked me to this http://www.circuitcity.com/detail.jsp?b=g&...=detail&c=1&b=g

which I ordered one... at least I won't miss out a good deal, if I don't like it, I will just sell it online or return... (better than not having the chance at all I guess)

WOW..........

A correct invoice? So are they going to charge your credit card the difference that they were suppose to sell them for if you don't return it? Isn't that illegal? I'd put all stop payments for HP on your credit card before they try it.

i find this funny as hell. HP can do absolutely nothing. If you already recieved the item, and your card was billed. They have no rights whatsoever. I would suggest contacting the better business bureau for those of you in this situation. If you dont send it back and they try to charge you thats illegal. ALso there is an article on the inquirer now about this. Bout time a big company got the short end of the stick!

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns

      Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.

      If you have the budget...! Some solo or indies just want to either learn or start their game and aren't in a capacity to pay salaries or to contractors... Get real.
