I sure do! The only PC's I've ever owned that were pre-built were
laptops. I'm not a hardware geek, but one of my friends is, and when
it's time to upgrade, we get together, buy parts and he puts them
together. I pay him with a tank of gas and a good, home cooked dinner
because among other things, I'm a cooking geek.
Thiebalt... What anattitude: "Do we care about them"...
I to, like Joe Zeff, have assembled my dektops from bits
and pieces that I could afford and were the best at the price
I was willing to shell out. I think there must be thousands
of nerds like us out there.
But what do you care....
This is a first step of building a tyrannical system....
After the first step, the screws get tightened even further...step by step.
Always try to find who stand to make bug bucks from initiatives like these.
It's all about control and through control, charge fees and get filthy rich.
