I thought the cheapskate sounded like that other idiot. What a jerk.
As for the Amazon review...I wouldn't worry too much. I've noticed everything always seems to have at least one "really bad" review with one star, and when you read them they're very obviously either based on something stupid, or very subjective. I tend to ignore those for the most part.
MoonCat -- that reminds me of a game review I saw on GF once, the score was something like 2 out of 10. He spend plenty of time trashing the game, but....The guy admitted fairly early on in the review that he had never even SEEN the game in action himself, let alone played it. And yet, somehow, it made it past the mods and got posted anyway (they supposedly vet reviews to make sure they're not complete, utter, biased garbage). Wish I could recall which game it was.
I have seen on reviews sites, and in aggregate reviews in general, that, for any given title, there will ALWAYS be someone who gives out minimum scores, often with no explanation whatsoever, or with preposterous reasons like "This title came out on the birthday of this dude I really hate. Therefore, the title sucks. QED.". They're just trolls.

Your epic demonstration website and DDOS guardian photo reminds me of the P-p-p-powerbook! pwnage I read about a while back. Some guy was getting an obvious scammer for a Powerbook he was selling on eBay. Took a 3 ring binder, glued keys on the inside, drew a screen on the other side, drew the ports on the back, and drew the Apple logo on the front. Shipped it to the scammer, and actually got the scammer to pay nearly $300 in customs fees to get a prettied up 3 ring binder.
