Samsung is evil, Youngblood.

I tell everybody I know to never buy Samsung products. They are relatively cheap and seem good, but that company is built upon horrible foundations. They have a long history of corruption here in Korea and the world knows nothing about them. They pretty much control the government, judiciary and have a free run in what they do. Just last year the Hebei Spirit sea captains were jailed for a massive oil spill, the accident was actually caused by Samsung vessels and of course the courts ruled in favour of Samsung, who it seems, manipulated proceedings. :-\

It's not just me that boycotts them, other people here in Korea do too and word has spread beyond. Samsungs reputation has also been tarnished in the shipping community too, where the Hebei captains were known as being good workers. Never feed the Samsung empire. It's much larger than you know.

Sorry for the rant. :p

Just really not a fan of Samsung, the corporation.

So they're pretty much the same as every other major company in the world? :p

Ha well, I did mention the tv was free, right?

I mean, if someone wants to give me an awesome car for free, I prolly be okay with it if it had S.S. Exxon Valdez painted on the side.

I second this. I have a SAmsung phone that is really small and cool looking. The problem is: It is the biggest hunk of shit ever. It echoes when you talk to people (which may be the most annoying thing ever) and the battery (even when new) lasted like a day without much use. COmplete Shit product.

Try not to fall asleep or go out when you only turn it off from the remote.
Our fire department recons they cant openly blame big companies for obvius reasons but they go to more house fires caused from cheap (mainly the chinese one Palsonic) tellys getting hot from that light that stays on than from any other cause. Off at the plug or the switch for cheapies mate.
