You wish. You can't fit 13 GB of memory into a computer. Only about 2GB to 4GB max for PCs. Also, I've seen better deals that this. Canadian money is worth less than US dollars, so generally in the US this price would be like over $800-$900. Not a "deal" IMO.

Actually you can get up to 32GB on a PC but usuallyonly withdual processor server motherboards. You wouldn't find that much on your typical HP desktop though.

You should get it, then scream false advertising when they say it doesn't have 13gb of memory. Of course they might lie and say it does thinking you dont know anything.

Seems like false advertising would be hard to get anything from them. They will claim the company printed it wrong and the company that printed it wrong with claim that they gave them the wrong information... either way Office Depot won't be giving out 13gigs of RAM to anyone who has that ad.

that's because the statement 20,000 banana's wasn't a mistake though it wasn't meant to be taken literally. Had it been a mistake and he said 2,000 bananas (instead of 20,000) then he could of refused saying there was a mistake in the ad. Most stores will honor reasonable mistakes though since most people feel cheated if they don't. I would say this ad isn't really a reasonable mistake so there's not much chance of them honoring it.

Only because someone shared the Banana story. In my area a car dealership put a billboard out by the highway that had a huge coupon for something like bring this coupon in and get any car for $100.00. Well you know what happened next. Someone actually got up on the billboard and took the part with the huge coupon, got a brand new car for $100.00. It made the news of course, and the car dealership never ran a billboard like that again.

On a serious note though...do you really have to pay for all that stuff for Xbox? That's almost $1000 just to have an EXTREMELY limited PC...I wasn't positive before but now I am. Gaming on the Xbox is just retarded and lazy.
