Woot : One Day, One Deal (SM)

But I know two things: I?m a 25? widescreen LCD with 1920�1080 HD resolution? and I have to get to the bottom of this. What happened to me? Who brought me here? Were they trying to kill me? Were they trying to drive me crazy? And why? Who would want me out of the way?

So many questions. So many pixels. So little time. But wait. I remember? something. I remember that I?m made by a well-known manufacturer. A manufacturer who doesn?t want to be associated with me, or me with them. I?m beginning to get the feeling that I?m a patsy. A dupe. I need answers, now ? before this scheme comes to fruition and I?m bumped off for good.

Or maybe there?s some contractual agreement between the owners of this warehouse and the third party they bought these monitors from, specifying that my original manufacturer not be revealed. But where?s the adventure in that?

Whatever the story, whatever the forces arrayed against me, I must unlock the secret of my origins. I?m in a race against time. A race against death. A race against oblivi- oh, wait. There?s a manufacturer badge, right below my screen. Well, that was easy.
