Topic: Overpriced wires
Article: Apparently this matters: $13,000 HDMI cables
Source: CNN news "apparently this matters" section
Summary: Diamond brand HDMI cables are made of silver, they are $13,000, and they are just as good as three dollar cables. They present the argument that silver is superior but i think its just plain overrated. I still use my free HDMI cable I got online, valued at $2. Same quality.
Reaction: I think this is the birth of Apples success. By that I mean one company gets rich off of saying their product is better than all the others' products, when in actuality it is just an overpriced piece o' hardware. I mean seriously, is my Android worse than an Ipod as far as battery, yeah, but is my map accurate, is my processor faster, and are my apps cheaper, if not FREE? So why go with overpriced cables with silver in them when you could have the same quality with plain wires?
World Impact: None. The only reason someone would buy these is to show off.
