    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here... Computer Shopper costs
less because:  1) It is 95% advertising (A2-Central is 0%); and 2) It has a
far, far wider distribution than A2-Central.  Mostly #1.  If you cut out
all the ads in Computer Shopper, you'll probably have less useful
information than an average A2-Central...

    So I guess you bitch exclusively at Apple, eh?  ;-)
