*POLL* What computer company do you HATE

[Sideswipe001]

Let me know if I should add any more companies. I listed as many as I could think of off the top of my head.

 

[K1052]

Veritas.

F'ing Backup Exec.

 

[sniperruff]

i like everything as long as it works and it's cheap.

 

[ggnl]

Creative, for monopolizing the sound card market and flooding it with cheap crap.

 

[mpitts]

Gateway and Creative Labs.

 

[Antoneo]

You forgot: Real, Roxio, and Highpoint 😉. At least stick in Real in the poll, that company has to burn.

 

[TwiceOver]

NewEgg. My shipping date changed again to next Wednesday. :roll:

 

[mpitts]

Real would probably win hands-down. Everyone hates them.

Apple would be a close second, but no one here could tell you why they hate them.

I voted real 🙂.

And I don't like Apple, only because their stuff is overpriced. Notice I didn't say I hate them, just don't like them 😉.

 

[Sideswipe001]

Can't believe I forgot Apple. Edited to add more companies.

 

[ShotgunSteven]

Electronic Arts. Last good games I played by them were probably SkyFox and Archon on the Apple IIE, if I remember right.

I don't like much of Apple's stuff, but I am seriously considering buying an iBook or a PowerBook. I'm still researching, and hope to actually get my hands on some today to see how I like the keyboards.

No kidding. :|

Add Symantec to the list as well, I have more random problems with maintaining SAV server groups (losing liveupdate functionality, members dropping out of server groups, System Center crashing, etc). Not to mention they change the name of their products every.fvcking.day. :|

 

[Gothgar]

Where is AOL?

YEAH! Them too.

 

[bandana163]

Codegen for most of their PSUs (the recent ones are all right) and JNC for their worthless trash PSUs.

 

[Electric Amish]

Nvidia, Real, Creative, Electronic Arts....from your list.

What about Id? I think Teh Carmack = Teh Douchebag.

 

[Sideswipe001]

I figured AOL would win in a landslide. So I left them off. 😉

This kind of passion is what makes me believe Real will win.

🙂

 

[lokiju]

Comcrap

 

[geecee]

Ugh ... too ... many... choices... head ... spinning ... can ... only ... choose ... one ...
😛

 

[rh71]

I think mine is Belkin. I had terrible experiences with their customer support as well as their QA. I believe both are non-existant. It took them 3 tries to send me a working USB 2.0 PCI card. They even said to keep the previous ones that I claimed aren't working. Like they couldn't care less...

 

[ggavinmoss]

It has to be Creative. They tortured me for soooo long with their crappy website that made it impossible to find drivers. Damn them!
