Agreed about virgin media. Shit service, shit customer response and I'd recommend everyone staying the frak away from it.
Any computer made by dell.
Same "problem" with Fujitsu-servers: they last longer than we'd like. Some customers have 6-7, sometimes 8 year old servers which are clearly outdated and the OS (Windows Server 2003) will be at the end of it's support cycle next year, but they don't realize that and keep telling us "it's too expensive yadda yadda"...The business line though...is amazing. I've had this shitbox Latitude for 5 years and the fucker just won't die.
The consumer line...total shit and have been for quite some time. (although our 06 XPS 400 is still alive and kicking....)

Hook this PSU up, set it up outside, and wait for it to kill itself and the computer, either through being a truly awful power supply, or Dells stupid non-standard wiring if it has it.
That, or mail it to Spectre, and let him have some fun with it.
*This is also my consumer warning. Don't buy cheap PSUs, or you may end up buying a whole new computer (or more).
Oh absolutely. I had an XPS tower in 2006 (back when I had no idea what I was doing), and it was alive until I dismantled it in 2011 and "mantled" my new computer with the new components. So I guess they could last long, but generally I found it to be shittastic performance for the price you pay. However... their XPS laptop (one that my best friend had) lasted him 1.5 years before it started artifacting and running at 99C at bootup.
That review was awesome, now i'm reading his other ones in the series. Good shit, thanks.
This KVM.

Unless you want to use it something below 1080p. Even though it says it can do 1920X1440 @ 60Hz
My AOC display for the life of it could not stretch the image to the edge of the screen. I have no idea if it was me or the box...
But, when you open the box and most of the directions are in Mandarin and it smells of slightly burned plastic, I probably should not have trusted quality.

Why would you want to use VGA at that high a resolution? My eyes hurt when I run across machines at work doing less than that over VGA,
Westinghouse TVs. Probably expand this to any of these legacy brands that don't mean anything these days like RCA. I got what I though was a good deal on clearance from Best Buy, and the damn thing wouldn't display a 1080p HD input from my computer.

welcome to toshiba!
you call their helpdesk for a hardware question, they reply "the biggest problem we have, is that our hardware wont die and we have to keep giving support on dinosaurs!" :lol:
