3. yea they look like they belong in juarez.. i bought a computer there, it was a piece of crap that
never worked right for very long.. the support from india kept string'n me along till the warranty ran out.. i was reloading XP..AGAIN, when i got to the registration, someone's name came up from GA.. i was in TX.. i was REALLY FRUSTRATED, PISSED OFF ..i deleted it.. as my finger touched the key and it disappeared.. i realized that was the guy who bought that defective piece of crap and took it back.. and somehow it got sold to me in Texas.

i had to replace the Optical and the XP program and the hard drive.. they hire people who know squat about the products.. who else would work for those wages.. i never went back. so the 256mb RAM 2.6Ghz 80gb HD LITTLE CELLERON.. ended up costing me over $800.

i was so sick of off the shelf un-fixable, non-upgradeable made with the cheapest crap avaible computers i built my own.. i built something that will last, has the best quality usa made capacitors, etc, huge heatsinks..i pulled off the factory heat tape from the heat sinks and put the best arctic silver under them...

i've got an overclocked e3110/server version e8400 core2 duo CPU VISTA 64, it and the 1 GB overclocked game card never get over 28.4*C/32*C playing Crysis with all the settings maxed out.

My wife has the old Presario now.. i up'd the ram to 512, but the little CPU cant run over 400mb, she thinks it's great.. she has hip replacements and cant use the stairs to get to my shop.. she has never seen my computer...:hide:
