check out the site: www.free-pc.com
Want a free computer? Ok, you can have one but you will have to divulge certain personal information and deal with annoying ads all the time. It's an interesting idea but you have to give out lot of personal information and have to deal with ads, I expect we will be seeing more of these type of site in the future...if they make money off it. I could see in some situations this could be good, ie a low income family who wants a computer, but is this saying that in the future information will be a commodity that only the rich can keep to themselves? Well, were in the info age, information is our prime tool and weapon of choice. What do you think about it?
