Digital Camera Madness

Status: Packing for Las Vegas
Quote of the day: None

I got my Canon PowerShot 100 four years ago for $499.99. During that time, a 2 megapixel camera was considered extremely powerful and advanced.

Four years later, I am looking at Casio Exilim EX-Z750 for $399.99, which allows one to take digital photos and make movies at 7.2 megapixel.

It seems as though technology is the worst thing to invest my money in. When I buy a program 8.0 today, version 9.0 would be out the next day with the same price tag.

Anyhow, my experience with buying this particular Casio digital camera has been horrible. For some strange reason, the Exilim EX-Z750 is out of stock at every store I go to. I looked for it for hours and days. When I finally found and bought one today at Costco, I was so happy I would have run across the street naked. Unfortunately, that's not about to happen because I discovered scratches on the camera's screen immediately after I opened the packaging. I desperately need to get the camera because I am leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow morning. I am now very angry and bitter and mad and want to burn down the house of the guy who sold it to me and said it is brand new. Obviously, someone had tampered with the camera. We are going to the store to exchange it tomorrow before heading off to Vegas. Hopefully everything will go smoothly. Hopefully they have it in stock.

Ugh. How crappy.
