Sorry if it's been posted before, I just found it pretty funny when I stumbled onto this.
This guy in Canada is taking donations for an experiment. When he has enough donations to cover the pre-order of a Xbox 360 he will place the order, make sure he's at the front of the waiting line, buy the console and smash it in front of the other people eagerly waiting to get their grubby little hands on it.

Pretty funny concept, he already did this with an iPod and also has sites up for the PS3 and Nintendo Revolution. I bet the looks on their faces will be priceless!
