    ABIT are now supporting the HEXUS community in sponsoring this forum.

    Got to say - good to see them back in full strength!

    Very Green. I like green, and this one hits you.... is 'Greeness' a new message?
    Try to make each and every day the best it can be.

    tbh, i reckon instead of sponsorship, theyd be better served opening a support forum, assuming of course theyre confident in their staff, i know id definately reccomend scan, and probably even mesh (although there are a lot of horror stories, most stuff seems to get straightened out pretty sharpish). As opposed to sponsorship, where it's just writing, and quite difficult to make out writing at that, coupled with a banner ad that i never look at.

    Just out of interest are we going to be seeing a lot of sponsored forums? If so what kind of sponsorship terms are we looking at? having the colour scheme change every couple of weeks could get annoying pretty fast.

    well i am very happy with Asus nowadays but in the past that is a different story still remember my mate brand new optical drive flying, when they called it EJECT button they really meant it. i think in the past they had some good stuff but their quality control wasn’t that good.

    2 years ago had an ECS motherboard changed it after some time and got an asus for about the same price, and WOW the general computer performance increased nicely.

    i am a asus lover now, but i still believe u should choose wisely each brand have their strong points their monitors for example just look CRAPY.

    keep... the sponsors... happy... hehe. I'm no Picasso, but it's a bit of a 'toothpaste' shade of green - kinda makes hexus feel minty-fresh look at my clean teeth
