A story form the Washington Post this morning tells the sad tale of a group of teenagers who allegedly beat up another teenager because the victim had cooperated with a Secret Service investigation into a counterfeiting in Reston. What does this have to do with Dell? Apparently, the counterfeits were created using a Dell desktop.

Sadly, it looks like the lives of at least five recent high-school graduates and athletes will be changed permanently because of $4,000 worth of $20 bills that were manufactured by one of the teens, and the ensuing attempt to silence a witness.

Not surprisingly, the bills were discovered when they were passed at the Silver Diner in Reston and turned over to the police and then the Secret Service.
