I think all the people in that line KNEW WalMart was only going to sell so many of the $400 laptops. That's why they stood in line all night. They knew the game, and were voluntarily playing it.

If they knew that Wal Mart was only selling 15 laptops and they were number 16 or greater in line, why would they have stood in line all those hours? Just for the hell of it? Why do you think so many fights broke out in store after store? Sorry but I don't think the people knew that Wal Mart had so few to sell at that price. I think they thought if they stood in line all those hours, they would get one.

Maybe its me but I think treating people in that fashion is disgusting.
