That was your particular dealer sending the flyers no? The only notes 
I've ever gotten from Ford were things that my dealer sent. So I've 
always taken it upon myself to make sure I understood when my vehicle 
needed service based on how it is used. That's why I equate CompUSA 
with my Ford dealer. CompUSA could send notes to people they sold 
computers to saying "You need to update x, y, and z. If you bring your 
PC in for service then we will happily update it for you."
