Building your own machine is entertaining and nice but I personally don’t have the time to configure and maintain my own machine while running my own business. Ill still stand by my purchase.
anyone want to bet that his business is called synapse?

Crucial memory is decent. FAR from the best. Decent. It's good quality cheap ram. Plenty of other makers' ram pisses on it.

Shipping's free? How generous of them. That'd account for what, 1% of the total cost?

Dude, you're convincing nobody. We all know it's a decent system, but we also all know it's overpriced. VERY overpriced. You keep ignoring the points i and others bring up, instead focusing on new things you pull outta your ass. You nicely glossed over the whole price of dvdrw drives thing for one. Care to answer why you said they cost (scrolls down) 400-800 dollars? how about addressing the points made in this thread, instead of latching onto a new thing each time?

You're a halfwit. Plain and simple. I wish i ran synapse, because i'd be fleecing numpties like you every day.

I'm not gonna defend this guy because we all know this thread is spam (and entertaining stuff it is too) but I haven't seen a DVD writer mentioned anywhere on 'his' web site for 400 -800 dollars. It quotes an 8x dual layer burner for $50.

Where are you getting thes prices from cos I can't find them. Have I simply missed them or is he lowering them each time he gets found out.

What am I missing here?

The prices have been changed to protect the innocent.

I love the smell of SPAM in the morning.

You can't beat a good movie misquote.

What Misquote. Have I got it wrong then? I thought it was right. Classic line from Adam West running around on a pier with big round black bomb with the fuse fizzing away... classic!
