Someone mailed this artile to me. Guess you should remember to erase everything off a Harddrive if you are selling a used laptop.

Owned.
Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."
There is never a good time for lazy writing!

Not that it matters really,
but Amir (the seller) sold the laptop knowing it was broken (it never worked when he put it on ebay), he refused to send it for a long time, claiming the money did not arrive, claiming he moved and could not send it and such.
It took months before the laptop finally got send.
That is a point in defence of the student.And would you want to see, if seeing meant that you would have to believe
