Something tells me that the Voodoo name won't live on very much longer, at least not as a computer brand. But then, Raul is a CTO over at HP now, so something also tells me that he doesn't give a good goddamn what happens to his old brand. There is no room for nostalgia when you're trying to innovate!
"The GOP machine has done such a good job of turning “liberalism” into the verbal equivalent of herpes. A “liberal” stands up for the same gun-toting, NASCAR-loving redneck who just got laid off because of outsourcing. A “liberal” wants to give that guy affordable health care, a new job with some security, and most importantly, a “liberal” wants to get big business off of his back. At some point, being a “liberal” went from the Roosevelt/Johnson/Carter/Clinton “hero of the working class” to guys who go out of their way to associate with celebrities, who, despite their good intentions, are literally despised by half the country. A “liberal” now wants that same redneck to have sex before marriage, force the woman to get an abortion just so he can laugh when the baby’s brain gets sucked up through a vacuum cleaner, then gets a gay marriage and spits on the Bible. Of course that’s not the reality, but it IS what the country has been told for the last decade."

So my F550 is now a collector's item?
In 1887, Iolani Palace was wired with electricity and telephone service-before Buckingham Palace and the White House.

...from pcworld.com...

For existing Voodoo customers, support and service won't change.

"Don't expect customers to see a difference," Finnie said.


...that's comforting...

Billy Preston
Nothing From Nothing lyrics

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin'
If you wanna be with me
Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin'
If you wanna be with me

I'm not tryin' to be your hero
'Cause that zero is too cold for me, brrr
I'm not tryin' to be your highness
'Cause that minus is too low to see, yeah

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
And I'm not stuffin'
Believe you me
Don't you remember I told ya
I'm a soldier in the war on poverty, yeah
Yes, I am

[Instrumental Interlude]

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin'
If you wanna be with me
Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin'
If you wanna be with me

You gotta have somethin'
If you wanna be with me
You gotta bring me somethin' girl
If you wanna be with me
An issue is for discussion, a problem requires resolution.

Total sell outs!

I remember when Voodoo was razing Alienware for being sell outs, what goes around, comes around.

Oh, theres a huge difference between selling out and innovating. Talk to Rahul, I'm sure he'll give you a seminar!
