No. I generate numbers. Take this for instance:

Bill told me today that he had sent me new springs for the MC5000-A. Instead of waiting until I receive the new springs to test, I set up the original block and test it today so that I can compare the old springs to new ones. If there is a detectable performance difference then I will probably HURT swiftech's bottom line by suggesting that all MC5000 owners get replacements from swiftech. Would it be bias for me to only test the new springs? Sure. Have I done this? Again no. Did you know anything about it either way? Not until I comment here.

Swiftech HAS sent me some review items: A MCX462-V heatsink, a MC5000A/2 BI Micro MCP 600 pump/MC-50 gpu block kit, and a MCWChill water chiller. Some were for keeping and some were on loan. Will I sell any of these parts and profit? No. Will the fact I can keep them affect my review? No. Does Aquajoe typically get review items back from reviewers? I doubt it. Am I insulted by your innuendos? You're goddamned right.
