As far as the Gemini block, When he first came out with the block, We talked. I told him there were a few things I would like to see from him, then I would be more then happy to see him produce his blocks that look SOOOOOOOO CLOSE to the SPIR@L that its uncanny. he seemed like a nice guy, and we aggreeded upon cross shipping blocks to each other to review and check out. I wanted to seehow it would preform and so on. I also had a few other "REQUESTS" and NONE were met.

I am beginning to feel like I was ripped off. Not to mention USED, and Screwed over.

I can tell you this, I am a nice guy and would bend over backwards to help someone out, Untill I feel screwed. And that I do. So... I will see what I can do about this matter.

Needless to say, IM PISSED OFF!
I called Fixitt the day after he notified me by e-mail about his block. We talked for about 45 minutes on the phone. At the end of the conversation I was going to proceed with my design, and also quote him a price for manufacturing his design.

1 Week later I had seen no drawings of his design. I proceed to email Fixitt concerning this issue and also to alert him that I was entering the Gemini blocks into a head to head competition performed by John at overclockers.

On 2/14 Fixitt responded. I was contacted by Fixitt saying that he would like to exchange blocks. Admittedly, I did not respond to this email. I was extremely busy with my own product and also my three kids.

Now I see Fixitt talking very badly about me and Gemini. Gemini is a small Job shop. I had an idea to design a great water cooling block. Obviously, bring the cool water into the center and go outward. The spiral was a natural solution. I stole nothing. Our blocks are very different. They only look similar

I am willing to assist Fixitt in bringing his design to market, in whatever way I can. I am not willing to modify my design, because it is backed up by solid engineering. I would be happy to provide Fixitt a quotation on however many blocks he'd like to have Gemini manufacture.

That is the truth,

Peter.
