The killer only got 7 years. How much time did the accomplices get?

The DDP sounds like Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx's character) in Law Abiding Citizen.

I'm surprised the killer didn't bargain for less time by offering up the accomplices. Although, with only seven years, it's not like she really needed to lower her sentence.

I'm a business student. Last year in a 200 level marketing course, we watched a video about Best Buy's business strategy. Everything from the way their store is set up to the service they provide.

The Geek Squad was started independently by one guy running around fixing his neighbors computers. He hired some employees and they all wore the 'geek' clothing that created a brand.

Best Buy bought them and now overcharges for everything. (That wasn't in the video, but it's pretty obvious when you read things like this... or look at their prices.)

My buddy has a four year old Sony VAIO. His hard drive crashed a couple months ago. Best Buy sold him a new one and installed it. In addition, they installed Webroot.

A few questions...

How much would that cost?

How effective is Webroot? Is there a reason they use it?

Is there a particular reason they install Webroot? (He says he doesn't know why the hard drive crashed, would Best Buy only install Webroot if it was a virus?)

How does money affect the behaviors you studied, particularly trust?

Someone asked about religion earlier, so I'll ask this: What interesting or unusual effects does sexual orientation have on a person's choices?
