What Can a Tech Fan Do With That Tax Rebate
It's getting to be tax crunch time, and maybe you're looking forward to that rebate that President Bush signed into law despite the fact that the government can hardly afford to give back $120 billion. Anyway, you can go on the Web and figure out with a few clicks what you probably will get. For me, about $1,300.
Let's see, for that I could buy a decent Sony Vaio or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop. It's also about the price range for a 47-inch flat-panel TV. I could buy a couple of unlocked iPhones.
Although, it's a little depressing to know that Exxon made $1,300 a SECOND in 2007. Or that Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales paid that much for a dinner with a VC. Kind of puts your refund in perspective.
