And please keep in mind that the Swiftech MCWChill water chiller I tested for a solid 6 weeks from Bill was a LOANER and not a freebie. Let's contemplate that for a minute. I put in 30 hours a week for 4 full weeks and bought about $50 worth of stuff just to be able to evaluate a product that I am shipping right back to Swiftech after the review is done. Why would I put that kind of effort into a review? Because of the readers of this site (esp Les and Bill) who kept pushing me for more and better test results that they could model. Do I make a penny off the ad revenues of Procooling? NO. Do I make $45 an hour at work with LESS technical effort than my hobby? Yes. Do that math for a minute: if I were at work I would charge $4500 for the same amount of work I put in for free to the readers of this site to test the MCWchill water chiller. Now do you think that I would honestly go to the trouble of that much time and effort in a review just to get $200 worth of free shit? Wouldn't it be more prudent to spend 5 extra hours at work than 120 hours of testing? Have I done anything ever (other than saying you were personally full of shit) to call my objectivity into question? Not in my opinion. Please post examples of where data I have produced was not 100% factual, or please shut the **** up.

Sincerely

Derek
