If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Who has three articles, all the same year, all on the same piece of hardware - a lappie - and two of them stating:

Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe my readers will enjoy. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."

Me? I smell pink meat here - one article when you got the lappie for free is ... ok (jammy git) ... but three? Smelly.
Your thoughts?
Or do we need to disturb @Sean-Ewington for a decision?

Let alone the uselessness of this kind of article, it is clear that what motivated these submissions was an advertising process going on.
I reported them.

I would say, we should wait for Sean to decide about the user. But the articles... they are quite "old-fashioned", hardware revisions of 2012... not that relevant today.
On the other hand... the guy didn't log in so much after posting the articles and didn't come back since 2015.

I remember these and thought they were rather shallow if not puerile articles. Amazing what gets approved.

I think at some point (few years back) Chris posted that technical reviews are welcome which lead to several articles containing different reviews, first impressions, package details, etc.
As my opinion, we should wait for opinion from Sean.

If I remember correctly, we posted these as part of a series of reviews on the Ultrabook. There were a number of authors writing these reviews, including Chris. Curtis is OK.
Thanks,

I'm just guessing the answer would have linked to a shop...
His other post was a "great laptop!" comment on a six year old review article: Latest Messages[^]
