The sad part is people will actually buy that. Once you know how HDMI works you know cable quality means nothing.

Dang son. That's some expensive hardware.

I love when people do reviews like that. I loved how the thing said "This user also recommends Mulan DVD." Hilarious. And the other guy's way funny as well.

"What's not so great: Can't drive it" For $1000, that thing should be able to fly and use night vision. xD

One of my many favourite parts

"What's great about it: Felt important buying a $1000 piece of wire
What's not so great: No improvement whatsoever from $140 HDMI cable"

$140 is still far too much, go for a $15 one. They're all the same, really.

To bestbuy's dismay, this 5 dollar HDMI cable will work just as well (might even be an upgrade, since its 6 feet). I have it, and its worked great for the past 7 months (no idea why it says it used to be 14.99, months ago when I bought it it didn't say that. Newegg trying to make people think they're getting a deal I guess)

Ha! The reviews were entertaining. I wonder how many people actually think that there is a significant difference between that cable and one that costs $20. It's probably a painfully high number.

There he lay now, sick, miserable, filled with ill-will towards himself; full of hatred for the impulses toward life, full of suspicion of all that was still strong and happy. In short, a "Christian"... - Twighlight of the Idols

The world is filled with plenty of idiots so surely it would be a very high number.
