Marketing people are lame....

There was a banner add on Newegg saying "Build a smoking hot rig"......

Now what I wonder is how this slogan ever sounded like a good idea to anyone?

Lol. I mean seriously, past how many peoples desks must that add have gone? And NO ONE put a stop to it....

to joe blow, more is better, so more latency must be better, right? marketing knows jack about computers fine, whatever, its understandable (albeit sad). but i guess they dont even know what "latency" is, as a word. having a crappy vocabulary, isnt understandable and every person's desk that that ad went through should have to go take an english class, again.

You mean ad? or they don't know how to add?
hmmm

I like the promotion they're having now... Happy Motherboards Day! (mothers day) :laugh:

Marketing people appeal to the masses. That's what they did. I'll bet they made a grip of money off that slogan.
