Joe, that's just great, start a flame war. You automatically assume it's my fault and not Maxtor's. Thanks, really smart, what a great contribution. If you actually read my first post, I tried to find out what was wrong, and could not because the rebate phone "support" was crap. The postcard they sent to inform me that my rebate was denied did tell me the reason was a previous rebate claim, which, since it was my first and only Maxtor purchase is completely riduculous. I also don't know how many identical box labels with stickers I can submit, but apparently they think I can submit more than one. As for taking things personally, I'm out $30. I'd say that is personal enough for me, what you think on this is irrelevant. I would not have bought the drive at the time without the rebate. I didn't have an immediate need for it, I could've waited a bit to upgrade as needed, but it was a good deal, and a great incentive. Unfortunately, Maxtor hasn't come through on this for me.
