The CPU market is no longer such that people can make money selling guaranteed CPUs.

He is now working in his previous field, as manager of an auto financing department.

Hi vm! Long time. I'm still here, as time permits. Yes, the prices of CPU's came down to where, it just did not create good value for the customer, or myself. I had to fold, and am now, as Viper GTS said, working in my previous field, which is my "back-hoe" for unburrying myself from a business failure. Oh well, failure is never final.....always remember that. Much better to try, and fail, than to never try at all. ;)

I don't venture into "OT" much but a thread from the Distributed Computing forum lead me over here...

Just wanted to say that I got a CPU from compuwiz1 a long time ago and it was as good as advertised. I ran it for a while and AFAIK it's still running in the system I sold after I was done with it. Always nice dealing with a fellow AT member. :) Hope things are going well for ya guy! :D

i concur...compuwiz1 is a great guy, even though i've never done business with him. He's even worthy of my sig material!
