I have nothing against people working hard for their money and then treating themselves to nice things. This is however utterly, utterly pointless. It adds nothing to the coffee in any way whatsoever and think of the good the money spent on this polished turd could do, for charities e.t.c. People are dying all over the world due to terrible conditions, famine and wars. The companies that make these products should be ashamed. The sad thing is, they wouldn't make them if people wouldn't buy them.

Hypocrites]]>Apr 6th 2008 3:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/
Your Arguement = flawed

Ok, ok you make one remotely valid point; us complaining about the coffee machine is not helping. Well, I don't know about you, but I regularly donate to charity.

Listen. My main arguement is that companies that make NORMAL products with UTTERLY USELESS features such as CRYSTALS that make NO IMPROVEMENT to the function of said product (in this case the coffee) and the people that buy these products, are STUPID.

The companies are greedy and the people have more money than sense and in my opinion, bad taste, although seeing as this is my opinion, is totally irrelevant to the argument and you should disregard it.

At the end of the day, I try to state things from an unbiased point of view. Having thought about it just now, reading your comment (and blocking out the hostitlity in it) I realised that the trainers and clothes I'm wearing now are branded.

You could easily argue that my Nike trainers are no better than this coffee machine. And, my good sir, you are CORRECT.

In our everyday lives, many of us do not think about the impact of things such as this. We are all (rightfully) bashing this coffee machine for the reasons stated. However, I'm sure many of us are wear clothes that were produced in sweatshops without realiseing/thinking about it. (Although I cannot accurately state this as I clearly do not know the clothing habits of any one but myself).

In summary, your point is valid, though there was no need for the 'superior attitude' in which you stated it.

However, what many of us and myself are saying is still true, and our fundamental arguement still remains totally valid and your comment did nothing to void the validity of our views, which are, in summary:

This coffee machine is unecessary and a waste of money.

And that's all there is to it.

I fail to see how the foundation of your arguement holds up, unless I'm missing something?]]>Apr 6th 2008 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/

1. Buy Nespresso Le Cube machine for around 170 €
2. Buy 3100 adhesive Swarovski crystals - 1400 cost around 40€, so 100€ should do the trick
3. Stick them on
4. Find a person with more money than brains and have them pay 2500€ for your hideous 270€ creation.

Chicksta, we both clearly disagree on a number of levels. At the end of the day it seems we are arguing over the fact of whether or not wealthy people have the right to buy this type of stuff. And the answer is:

off course they do. They have every right to purchase this with their money that they worked for.

The second arguement is whether or not the manufacture has any right to make this coffee machine:

off course they do. it's not breaking any rules, it's a perfectly legal coffee machine with a design change.

Most of us scorn the people that buy this and dislike the manufacturer for producing it.

And people such as yourself defend the right of the manufacturer's to produce such items and off course the right of other people to buy them.

Both arguements above on both sides are fair game. However, my arguement is based on opinion, an opinion shared by most readers on this site.

Your arguement is based on fact; the fact that people have the rights to buy such an item.

You therefore 'win' due to the fact that your ammunition is cold hard fact, mine is opinion, albeit an opinion which most of us agree with, but opinion nontheless.

And that ladies and gentleman, is the end; We may accept facts, but we sure as well don't have to agree with them.]]>Apr 6th 2008 5:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/And yes, I am going to overlook your constant insistence of thinking that the majority opinion constitutes any (non)validity to anyone else's opinion. And if you don't want to accept facts, then people, by all means, go out and change them! ]]>Apr 6th 2008 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/06/swarovski-bedazzled-nespresso-coffee-maker/

First of all Chicksta i didn't mean to reply there, but thanks for your attempt at a 'put down'.

Second of all if you read my mini essay again you'll notice that I stated that you WERE NOT using opinion, I stated I was!

Lastly, and I mean it, (I'm going to bed now!) Once again if you read my post again, you would see that I didn't REJECT the fact, I juct Chose not to LIKE the facts.

Over and out.

Now, was that an attempt at a put-down, a put-down, an opinion, or fact?
