Wow, definitely check your spam filter but if not there you can contact [email protected] and he will certainly get your pc out the door if not out there already. You should be gaming by now. Do keep us posted.

I ordered an Aventum when they first released, however many years ago that was now. Still waiting on it. Granted I just put "see Alex" down for the payment information, but I didn't think that would be an issue. Big%20Smile

Oh, so we're still not discussing the "Envy-Green" Aventum that was being built for me that I was told was being checked out at Digital Storm East when done?

Still being tested.      

Can’t rush these things you know.     Thought I saw a glitch awhile ago.

bprat22,

Since you are a well respected Forum member I asked Alex to route your system to me first so that I can verify that it works properly. It is a special option for special people like you!

I will be sure that it passes weeks of hard burn in tests here in my home lab before I certify it as ready for Digital Storm's most highly respected customer.

I am sure by June that it will be ready for that last little FedEx hop to your house from mine!

IIRC, Stage 8, DST4ME gets it first, then it starts making the rounds.

My stage 8 service is only available to old school Digital Storm customers with street cred. I usually add that little piece of paper like in a pair of new jeans:"Inspected by # 76" as a special treat after my extensive tests are performed.

With DST4ME on Sabbatical, I have taken over the Stage 8 service. I might have to start charging a small stipend in the future due to escalating electric costs.

Good to know! Having that inspection slip will become a singular, badge of... whatever, no doubt.

Should I purchase anew, (and qualify), the stipend will be in the mail, sir!

I'll do you one better. I'll pay you $100 for every $2000 you spent on the machine. So a $6000 purchase will get you Tidgxor's Exclusive Stage 8 Service™ and $300* in your pocket.





































*Payable in 1 penny installments over the course of 350 years, with an initial installment date of 01/01/2500.

My offer to assist bprat22 for an appropriate stipend for my services was not a general offer to the rest of you. I am only doing this special deal for him to help out a respected member of the Forum upon his return.

I am available to help others and provide a bespoke custom Stage 8 service but if you have to ask the price you would not be a proper client of mine.

bprat22 is old school and we have to show respect for his former street cred! He deserved the price break I gave him on my custom Stage 8 burn-in service. Matter of fact, I might run tests an extra month just to be sure he gets the best machine possible.

I resent the implication I may not be old school with "street cred"! I'll have you know I may well be the "Senior Member" of old school at 73. As for street cred, I have recently slain 5-(count 'em)-FIVE dragons in Pillars of Eternity. Just because they weren't on the "street" seems of little import. I wasn't coming to you as a beggar, hat in hand, asking for a freebie! I offered to remit a stipend by mail when I purchase my next Custom Beauty from Digital Storm. Should you continue to show such ambivalence toward those of us who have shown yeomanlike service to the beloved Forum, I shall be forced to undertake the Quest for DST for stage 8 services I can trust!!

Land-o-Goshen, where do these whippersnappers come from?

bprat22 just wants his system while he is still on God's shiny side of the Earth. :-)

Regardless, my offer for Stage 8 multi-week burn-in offer still stands. If he isn't around his heirs will be happy to have a fully functional and solid system as a reminder of the dearly departed.

It is just the kind of guy I am!

   Onkel……No need to write my obituary. I feel pretty good, unless you know something I don’t.   

I’m starting to feel a little bit anxious as my build time increases.    Maybe DS will let me into the back to build my own. Vacation in California and build a pc. Good times.

No, I’m not calling Alex.   All is good.
