I though yuo were talking about blue hippo. The whole $600pc for $3k after weekly payments to thhose that will have the most problem affording them thing.

The Bluehippofoundation, a front for the company is so slick at marketing what they do as a good thing, it makes me sick

When you go to that first link, read the stuff the scrolls on the left side... Pretty hilarious.

I like this part....


"Michael's MX8 Systems with the highest performing graphic card made - ATI's RADEON x850 256MB DDR Video card allow or Nvidia's DDR 256MB 6800 DUAL RAMDAC the user to take center stage!"

Then of course, there's the prebuilt featuring an AGP mobo with a PCI-Express GPU....

I'm sure there are lots of shady vendors out there, but Tigerdirect came to mind right away when the OP said "shady".
