Quite possibly the strangest man I've ever seen...

[msparish]

Here in Salt Lake, there is (I guess was) a computer company owned by quite possibly the craziest man I have ever seen. Anyway, they announced they are going out of business today.Text

For a little background on the guy: Text

There are videos, but they require real player.

Cliffs:
1. Computer company goes out of business.
2. Crazy owner says media is at fault.
3. Calls media liars and murderers.
....
4. No more profit!

I don't think I would trust a place called "Totally Awesome Computers". Sounds too fly-by-night.

They had actually been around for a while...it was just the owner's style: completely over the top. If you watch the videos from both links, you'll see what I'm talking about.

They should make that clear, because I thought I was reading a twelve-year old's blog. It comes off as terribly written.

His ads were just as crazy as he is...and although they probably put off 99% of the population, 1% probably liked them. So, in a city like Salt Lake, that's 15,000-20,000 likely customers.

true, but that guy is just stupid. he just decided to close down without any real reason. it was probablly just a stunt to blame the media and get attention.

Seems to me he ended up joining a cult. Weird
