Netbooks?

---
Have you heard of Netbooks?  I think they sell them in Buenos Aires, but they also sell last year's model, and those from a few years back.


I took this picture yesterday.  Are those Netbooks in the window?  What's that on the white table -lower left?  Today's Special! (I have a close up below).

click images to see where this store is

close up...

the tape is so that nobody steals this monster



Argentina usually catches up with the rest of the world, oh, 30 years later.  Yes, I have seen institutions using these dinosaurs - they also stamp everything.  The banks sound like construction zones - as they pound away stamping checks.

This store is located 1 block from the Obelisco, in the heart of downtown Buenos Aires.


Thus, the name - translated "Obelisco Office Supply"


 


Sorry about the picture quality - I took them on a whim




Here are some other photos of the same store in case you want to call them and ask for the current prices on any of these beauties. (click the images to enlarge)















Come on!!! - Comments anyone?
