Allow me to repeat what D2G just said. Our gracious hosts at pctorque.com are Sager dealers. We should be extremely thankful that they are willing to pay the bandwidth to provide us Dell heads a free home. We eat up the majority of assets at NBF and don't make pctorque a dime. We should send a thankyou email every day for their kindness.

Now, hush up before they notice we're down here.

The post above mine wasn't there when I posted. He posted at 06:21 PM and I posted at 06:26 PM. Looking now I know why I didn't see his. When I come to this forum I open a ton of threads in tabs read/reply. I had one open that hadn't had his reply yet.

Sucks because it made me seem like an ignorant ass who just posted without reading. Heh.

Well, now they do earn a (very minimal) income from the Dell coupons that we use from the Deals and Coupons part of these forums.

There's no excuse other than many of the new features and expanding we're doing is being sponsored by PCTorque who are here as Sager resellers and actually started the site when it was sagerforums.com.

We just built new servers which we are using to colo the forums on dual Xeon raid 5 boxes. We also just set up game servers for CS and BF2 which you can read about in the gaming section (Straferight.com). We have some cool new features and sections still to come (a few weeks). All of this takes a lot of time and money and notice we keep banner ads off the site. So considering the start of the boards came from the Sager community and PCTorque is putting up the $ for these projects, the Sager section stays at the top for now. I do not want the Sager section at the top and will hopefully be able to justify it being moved down soon. I do not want any of you thinking I am expressing an opinion of Sager being better than Dell in any way because I don't feel there is a "best choice" brand out of any of the listed sections we have.

"Collapse-O-Crap"
lol

Some hacks are in the works to make this easier and cleaner, but we have a ton of things we're working on so it may be awhile. Hardly any of the work is scripted, it's mostly in house code written as needed. You will all see the results of some of this work in the next few weeks as we release some of the bigger projects we've been working on.

I'm very aware of areas that need worked on and not ignoring any of them. So, stick with us, we're only going to make the potential of the community better and better
