I'm only passing on the knowledge I've acquired from other people.
You are absolutely correct on the marketing angle. I'm disgusted every time I browse an electronics flyer or ad. I've also given up asking technical questions to sales staff at the retailers. My advise to the average consumer is to arm yourself with knowledge by reading reviews and forums then go to the store only to haggle price. If you do your research you already know more than the average sales person.
