Name a company or product whos name doesnt seem to fit.

Start with a bunch of substandard components, have them assembled by people making .10 cents a day and then have your product given away at FRYS with purchase. Sound like a winner? Sure! Its called ECS Elitegroup! How the heck to wind up calling yourself "elite" building crap? Elite to what? FOXCONN?! At least Foxconn admits its a con up front. :laugh:

I dont mean to insult your board if you use one, but most people agree those boards are given away (or thrown away) for a reason. They are not overclockable, tend to be unstable under load and give up the ghost not long after installation.

Can you think of any?

I agree. The ironic thing is enough of those smallish Big Macs and she doesnt become fun size, she becomes ton size. 🙁

AMD is the only reason i7 is currently available, so the name fits.

OP - Foxconn has been improving of late, try looking at the Quantum Force series.

To outsides, 'Water Ice' probably doesn't sound like it fits.

I think ECS makes a lot of the boards for OEMs like Dell and Fry's no longer uses them, at least not in my store.

Foxconn makes a great utilitarian board. They're perfect in office type machines where BIOS options, and overclocking aren't a concern.

Where is our jerkoff smiley when you need one?


AMD is lucky if they make it through the year.

That name is truly ironic. I guess they figure reverse pyschology moves products. 😉

security company called intercon... I guess their competition is interpol?

Big Mac - a smallish sandwich

When introduced in the 50's or whenever it was the largest hamburger anybody had ever seen. Before then folks ate White castle size burgers - and full-grown men ate several of them at meals.
