The falcon thread has the appology at the end. Snookims is the one you're thinking of.

There's no benefit to buying a VoodooPC. Theres OEM's all over that will build the same thing, water cool em, custom case, the whole nine......for a lot cheaper. It's like when Compaq or big OEMs try to sell you re-badged RAM upgrades double, triple the price of a normal stick because it says Compaq on the box....People think it's their only option. Kids everywhere convince their moms that VoodooPC is the only way they'll get UT 2k3 to run fast. Gaming system is able to play games.......anything marketed otherwise isnt?
BTW people arent going to VPC for tech support. That's not what they're known for. People go to dell because of their tech support. And I don't care if they come in your house, fix your PC, give you a BJ, make you a sandwich and tuck you in.........it's not worth the money.

So when you buy VPC, what're you paying for?

Oh, so when tech support says they're coming over to your house with DSL, they don't mean for the computer?

oh my,
anyways, i'm a 17.5 year old H.S. junior (yes, i was once MM's age, not nearly as immature at that age). I run (not "own"... yet) a small computer support company outta my house here in Florida, i've made a few inroads in the area over the past year and am soon going to deploy something to the liking of Alienware et. al. "YaCC" (Yet another Computer Company), apologies to my chief programmer, lead dev on YaPP for that bad joke :-D

anywhose, i've seen far too many people ask me "i'm buying a new computer, what should i get? Dell?"
I try to remain calm and convince them Dell is E-V-I-L ! ! !

all whako, just plain whako.

Why? Ive seen worse things done by smaller OEM's, and neighborhood PC stores. Bait and switch........newspaper adds that advertise great deals on name brand, high end PC's, only when you go in they're out of stock.....BUT! They have a "similar" House Brand system for a little more money.........I remember when a local shop was selling cyrix300MMX systems. That system was their switch on "sold out" name brand Pentium233 systems. I go into these places for price comparison all the time. One guy wanted to charge me $19 for a mitsumi Floppy drive. When they didnt have a graph card I was inquiring about, they presented another, less performing card and swore it was just as good. "no difference" he said. I think it was a ti4200 against a mx440. From dell Ive only made one purchase. It was for a 19" trinitron monitor about 3 years ago. It was priced cheaper, and, according to many reviews had as good picture quality as those higher end, and much more expensive. I bought the monitor and havent had a problem in those 3 yrs since. They shipped it promptly, provided a phone number for tech support should I run into any problems. Low price, quality, prompt delivery.......that's what I like. Not that runaround BS you get elsewhere. I don't buy PC's, but if I did, I would consider Dell.
