My office made a trip out of this. After lunch we decided to see if it worked. We trotted over to Best Buy, and walked out with quite a bit of new electronic equipment. Yes boys and girls, that's right... Best Buy allows you to buy ANYTHING in the store.
I walked out with a 27" PnP Sony TV for about $80 (after rebate). All we had to agree on was that we would give MSN a "fair trial", but the agreement explicitly states that you are under no obligation to complete the 3 year commitment. You may cancel at any time.
We got back to the office, called MSN, cancelled, and that was that. Upon our return, our remaining staff quickly dashed over to Best Buy to take advantage of this offer. If you're a CA or OR resident, jump on this while you can. Given the amount of people jumping on this bandwagon, and the amount of merchandise being sold (RAM, Sony DVD players, and misc computer equipment were already sold out when we arrived) I'd advise you to take advantage of this while you still can.
And for those paranoid that it may backfire, according to Best Buy's CA and OR contract you may return the items purchased for a full refund and cancellation of your MSN account without any repurcussions.
Just wanted to let everyone know that this thing is as real as it gets. It's like Christmas all over again!
