Recently, I was at a computer store that was selling a DVD re-writer that included Lightscribe (technology that allows you to burn text and images right onto a cd or dvd) at an unbelievably low price.
I quickly purchased one and as the clerk was writing out my bill, mentioned how I was looking forward to using Lightscribe. I was then informed that the reason the drives were being sold so cheaply was because there was a mistake with the manufacturing and even though it was mentioned on the box, there was no Lightscribe capability.
When I suggested there should be some mention of that fact beside the sale items, I was told that most people didn’t even know what Lightscribe was, so they hadn’t bothered.
Moral of the story – if you are looking for a specific item, don’t take it for granted it will be included with your purchase, even if the package says it is!
