hey, i sent an email to michael a couple days ago about his impossible systems, and this is wut i wrote to him.

hi michael,
 
i was looking at your computers, more specifically, the mx8. i'm
curious how u can possibly configure an amd fx-51 3400+. the fx-51 is a
socket 940 processor and the 3400+ is a socket 754. and how do u get a
3dmark03 score of 16895 with the radeon 9800xt? thats the score you would
get on 3dmark01. and how do u have microsoft windows 2004? i very doubt
that microsoft made an operating system just for you. also, how can u
possibly have a dba of less then even one on your computers?

then today, i got a reply back from him and he wrote to me:

"Hello Mikey,

The MX8 is awesome and is no better at this time than with Intel's latest 3400MHz P4 HT Processor.

We benchmarked both AMD"s and Intel's Processors and INTEL is once again back at the top?by far!

We know more about systems than the majority of manufactures simply because we have been in the business
longer and relate with more top technologies than the others are never allowed to touch.

To see 3DMark03 run ULTRA smooth and at frames up to 700 and above per second is breathtaking?never a drop
and no slow downs. Windows 2004 is the latest Mircrosoft XP With Service Pack Release 2 which is slated 2004.

We also pride ourselves on the quitest systems on the planet. So quiet, that the largest Hospitals are upgrading
to our systems simply for patient quiet relations. No doubt they are playing some pretty intense games as well
after hours J

With our systems being the only instant computers in the world, it's something that you have to feel
to appreciate?.we can ship to you in 3-4 days and take $100 off, fair enough?"

how retarded....
 
wtf, cool he will take $100 off though...

They did a piece on some vaporware console called the Phantom, it was not favorable at all. The company then threatened OCP with a lawsuit if they didn't retract the piece. OCP refused of course (kudos for not backing down).

That is all.

elaborate?

Technically HardOCP are taking Infinium to court; or HardOCP are forcing Infinium to take HardOCP to court. 😕

Cliffnotes -
HardOCP writes an opinion peice, effectively that the Phantom console is really aptly named, with some insinuation that the whole thing looks like an investment scam.
Infinium labs threatens to sue (like a year later or something, when everyone's forgotten about it).
HardOCP says they will change anything shown to be inaccurate, but havent been told what is meant to be inaccurate.
Infinium, eventually, says what they think is inaccurate.
HardOCP basically takes the piss out of that.
HardOCP takes a legal move which basically means a court acts as arbitrator to settle wether HardOCP has made any wrong, which also means Infinium has to put up or STFU about threatening to sue.
 
< 0.11 dba? I guess it has no fans....

"Thankfully, Michael's Computers developed 500GB Hyperdrives exclusively which function 4X as fast as a single drive and twice as fast as the archaic RAID system"

hahahah

I didn't realize that hospitals had "after hours." 😕

My dirt bike is silent (0db).
Until you start it.

I suppose, it would also depend on the method of testing.
Sound level meter not on, in another room/country or in a sound-proof box.
