Have any of you been following this thread at Gideontech?

The short version is this kid sold a guy a laptop and never shipped it, then proceeded to make a world class fool of himself. The thread is now over 200 pages, and the amount of dirt these people have dug up about the boy is nothing short of astounding.

It's not nice to make fun of the mentally ill, but this boy sets the standard by which every asshat on earth will be measured. A very long read, but it's as much fun as a good movie.

Write us some cliffs of the story, and more people might pay attention to this thread.

No one here is going to sit down and read a 200 page thread on the issue.

Cliffs:
- a user called ZioSystems posts an ad about his new company on a forum.
- he goes about bashing Dell in this post, saying how they stopped focusing on customers
- another user called dw5304 posts a warning regarding ZioSystems, indicating how he was charged a month ago and never got his laptop.
- ZioSystems calls dw5304 an idiot for "b!tching", complains about how he is short-staffed and hasn't slept, then tells dw5304 to "Do your job as a consumer"
- other forum members start criticizing ZioSystems
- ZioSystems breaks into full incoherent rant against NewEgg, Dell, Sun, Google, Microsoft, Stanford University
- I'm guessing the thread gets Digg'd and ZioSystems starts criticizing Digg users
- People start pulling ZioSystems's location info

... that's all I read up to.

Yea, I want to know what happens next, but I don't want to have to read through so much garbage.

Good memory. I try to find original threads if I notice a repost, but almost always fail.

I had it bookmarked because I was going to read it at one point... I still haven't 😛

Thats pretty much all thats happened up till now. The rest of it is just the kid from Ziosystems making a fool of himself. Tho he does have a two page add in a computer magazine, I forget which one.
I've enjoyed it because it's such a train wreak, every time the kid posts he gets more incoherent, his lies grow and grow, and forum members keep proving he's nothing more than a tool. He claims to have run the eastern U.S region for Dell, turns out he worked at a mall kiosk, and got fired for being nuts. Someone got hold of his review from Dell and posted it.
This one is going to become a legend.
