RE:"Packard Bell almost went belly-up because they make crappy products."

Dale,

Packard Bell has traditionally put Intel CPU's on Intel motherboards. Is that your definition of a "crappy product?"

Dale,

No, Packard Bell almost went belly-up because they make crappy products.

Are the products crappy because they use Intel parts, or is it because after paying premium for Intel parts, there is very little money left for other components, and you have buy total crap in order to keep your cost in line with competition?
