i'm sorry but suggesting that i receive anything free is a joke and truly outlines your lack of knowledge as to what goes into a computer hardware review. i don't fault you for it, but please try to understand what you are implying with statements like that. don't get me wrong, i am not complaining about all those sacrifices, if i was, i simply wouldn't continue to do it. and yes i enjoy doing what i do, and why i make the sacrifices i do, but i sure as hell don't get anything free...anything.
heck, i got the F1EE today from Vince, it was "free"...or was it? ask anyone who put in time and effort to compete in the 01 low clock challenge if they had won the competition if the prize would have been free? something tells me that is a unanimous NO vote.

Free as in you didnt have to spend money on the 975 ES, yes that is free. I understand you work hard, I understand you obviously have skillz to pay the billz, you just sound so bitter and self loathing in your posts. You love computers, and you love tweaking them whats better than getting free stuff to review etc.
Is it really that bad man? To mess around and bench 01 and win a sick prize?
