Price tag can change the way people experience wine, study shows (Jan 31 2008 18:45 GMT) - In what will be music to the ears of marketers, the old adage that you get what you pay for really is true when it comes to that most ephemeral of products: bottled wine. If a person is told he or she is tasting two different wines -- and that one costs $5 and the other $45 when they are, in fact, the same wine -- the part of the brain that experiences pleasure will become more active when the drinker thinks he or she is enjoying the more expensive vintage.

Acer gobbles up 75% of Packard Bell (Jan 31 2008 18:42 GMT) - Posted Jan 31st 2008 11:10AM by Paul MillerFiled under: Desktops, Laptops Just like expected, Acer has formally bought into Packard Bell, snapping up 75% of PB Holdings, Packard Bell's parent company. Things got a bit hairy for a bit there when Packard Bell started speaking with Lenovo as well, since Acer fears losing its strength in Europe to the Chinese giant. Luckily for Acer, Gateway was the real clincher here, since Gateway started talks with Packard Bell before getting bought by Acer itself, and had nabbed the right to counter any offers Packard Bell might get from other companies. |
