it will be a case of if i prefer one over the other then i will give the one im not madly keen on to my gf..
her and her son are like hand me down stuff for the new hardware i get, no matter what it is.. its like an upgrade program, but they dont know anything about it! plus its me who is paying for it so i dont think that they really care..
i have been a fan of abit ever since i first had my first decent pc.. (duron and geforce2 mx, was better than the k6 2 400 i had and the pentium 120 i had before that...) and with an epox i havent ever used one.. so it was something different to try.. i dont mind going out and getting the same thing from a different company, gives me opportunities to see what they offer and how the perform..
i guess you can say its all in the learning curve
