Hey, I like work at a small time grocery store that's unique only to the Mid West. It's like a low rent Wal-Mart, but not even that. So, I find that they sell the Dyson vacuum cleaner with the rotating sphere or whatever engineering nonsense that some goof was dying to incorporate. That thing costs like $500 dollars which is like a fiver to you guys, but for us it's still expensive.
Well anyway, now they sell the Dyson Fan or whatever it's called--multiplier. It's like $300 dollars! Three Hundred Dollars! That's ridiculous. My store had one on display. It was on. It's not all that you know. I think it happens to be an inefficient design. And I don't even know anything about designing stuff. It's a novelty, a high priced tchotchke. It's supposed to be different from the average fan we all know, but I bet that inside its guts is something similar to a regular fan powering everything.
Why do they sell it at a store that doesn't cater to rich people?

It's the air fan equivalent of an apple product. All style, little practical benefit over other products which cost much less. In this case, approximately 10 times less.
They're loud as fuck too.

What the hell..... never even seen that shit. Sounds cool, though, haha. I imagine some kind of steady velvet like wind. . . all magic like.

I arrived at the conclusion by reading the Dyson website, and then imagining what wind delivered in such a manner would feel like.

Well I think it's safe to assume the Dyson website is not going to give the most accurate and unbiased opinion of its own products. Secondly, its a fan, it propels air in your chevy chase, I wouldn't imagine there's a lot of room for improvement on this concept. Not to press the issue, I mean, who really gives a shit, it's a fan... Fuck yo' thread niguh!
