What..What...You Know...What the Hell?

IMGP0002.JPGI mean...really? So early in the junk blog? Are you putting us on? Are you just buying junk to post on this blog? Really? I mean? REALLY?

IMGP0006.JPGIt's the exact damn POS camera that you said was a POS and soundly said it was a POS because it is a POS!! Why the F**K would you buy another? HP cameras are not known for their quality but they are at least BETTER THAN THE 'V" CAMERAS! But I mean, OH NO THEO, NOT ANOTHER HP!!!

IMGP0012.JPGNo, it's just a slight bit different. It's a HP Photosmart 433. That's 2 numbers less than the 435 POS. Other than that, oh wait, this one only has a useless 3X digital zoom. Oh yeah, it didn't come with a strap or a marketing label. Plus, it comes in WHITE FACE rather than dual tone silver.  WTF WERE YOU THINKING? It doesn't say KODAK. We know you have a *CENSORED* for those KODAKS. Why the hell get another POS HP?

IMGP0011.JPGIt's the SAME POS I tell you! What, did they somehow improve on it in two digits? It's got the same picture taking functions including the super annoying "touch the button and it snaps" and no macro. It's got the SD card and 2AA batteries. Hmmm, it's a slight bit different though. Well, the proof is in the pictures I guess...

IM000376.JPGHmmmmmmm. Muh. Mmmmmmmm.  Maybe the fact that this one did not have the batteries leak inside might have helped it take the doggie pic a bit better. What about the macro Browns pad that it couldn't take?

IM000379.JPGKnock me over with a POS. It did a slightly respectable job. Maybe they did something to tweak the programming in the newer cam that wasn't as good. Like a Windows ME version of Windows 2000 or Vista version of XP or a goo ga gee of ha bee boo. *finger in lips and make a B-B-B sound*

A mini "Junk within a Junk" taken by the HP POS. The cans are all from ALCO, a small chain like Wally that a few years back, got tired of being in business making a modest profit, sold themselves to an investment group and went under a few years later. For awhile, they had thier own brand of sodas. I'm pretty sure they are all Shasta flavors. I have a transforming wolf, a Disney toy of a sheepdog with a cat on it's back. Next to that is a wind up, flipping mutt. Then I have a singing dog decoration purchased as a misc piece of some entire Christmas set. Next to it is a Hallmark doggie vending machine decoration. Both of those get moved to the Christmas tree for the holidays. Plus, you can barely see the Play-Doh "Fuzzy Farm Animals" set with a sheepdog that grows Play-Doh fur. Nifty. The key chain is Caribou coffee and yes, I have a set of GE computer speakers. There. Dusty.

IM000363.JPGThis post was brought to you by Good Job Bob. He's wearing a very trendy flowered vest. Resembles Trey Anastasio from Phish and has an affinity for black velvet tiger pictures. *cough* Yes, the POS was only $2. Wasn't it worth it to have another POS for only $2? That's not even a gallon of gas. It was cheaper than my other POS and takes better pictures. Still gonna keep it in my box of broken dreams. Some poor sap paid $100 or more when this POS was new. I paid $2 for it. Good Job Bob!
