eteknix awards is like getting a golden star for turning in your homework on time.
I personally disagree strongly. I can show you numerous reviews where awards were not given to products. A lot of reviews receive rewards yes because our partners only want us to showcase their best products.
I have to agree with the reviewer about the paint job being beautiful. That in itself is worth a few extra shekels. Not a bad little gaming rig by any means.
I didn’t really like the paintjob. As a matter of fact, I find it horrible… Tastes and colours, huh!
It won’t appeal to the whole wide world but I like it,
The case looks like it was microwave or mini-fridge inspired. The paint job looks like you poured some glue onto a black case and threw cut grass all over it. It’s about as impressive as when Homer designed a supercar. http://onscreencars.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/TheHomer.jpg Doh!
WTF, you spend nearly £2k on a machine and they still charge for delivery…. id tell them to get lost.
true they should have at least hidden it in the total cost to fool the buyer, as many companies do
