Re: CD Freaks World Community Grid Team

well, if you check my edit in my last post... i found later it was a Intel 3100 Graphics card... which sucks
i mailed the supplier (which is the HP Suppliers for the UAE!!! maaan!! they really ache!!!), and they told me they can add a Nvidia 8500GT 512MB... which sucks as hell!!! out of all the good ones out there they've chosen one of the few 400MHz DDR2 cards in the market!!! i told them i want an Nvidia 8600GT, 8400M GT or even 7900 or something!!! they all come with DDR3, they seem like they've never heard of ATI!! but i might have to accept the 8500 cause, if i don't, it might take over a month to get a new rig!!!

day after day, the IT scene here gets clearer for me, it's purely a consumer-blind market! neither the customer nor the retailer know anything about computer!!! for instance, all around the UAE you can find nothing else than Imation, SONY or Verbatim (DVD+Rs and MIT CDs) products... maan!!! it's a pre-built PC market! you can never customize anything! It is HELL for a CDFreak!!!


Sorry for being OT ... but i'm just tired of this ... i miss that humble PC market in Syria... you could find everything and anything in there!!! LITERALLY!!

i should've waited before declaring my comeback .... it's gonna take a while i guess
