    Actually Betty will make a HUGE mistake and unintentionally actually purchase the whole cart full. I can see that coming from a mile away.

    That’s the phantom profit – it just makes you spend your life savings!

    not sure I understand. What I read is that after purchasing a computer with x value, the 10% will be discounted in a future purchase. If that is correct, the 10% of the computer is $4k; which means the computer costs $40k, is that correct? I am wondering what kind of end-user device can cost that much. If you build it yourself the case and cooling will not go over 2k, buying top of the line equipment. If you customize a top of the line dell precision, it will not go beyond 15k, with either a xeon or i9 processor, and that would be before the discount. if you buy a top of the line tesla nvidia card, which is not used for gaming but for other things (it does not even have a video output), it will be about 3k. And I am not even sure what does it mean a ‘dual system’ pc (double boot?)

    No, she has a coupon for 10% off of whatever she buys, so for some reason she is trying to see how much that 10% will save her if she buys even more. So the 65" 8K HD TV plus the gaming computer must come to $40k, realizing a $4K savings. I could figure that out without putting anything in the cart. If she’s lucky they will let her cancel the purchase after she or the kid accidentally hits the BUY button.
