titleYou know typically being based out of Ohio doesn’t have a lot of upsides. We are normally extremely far away from just about anyone in the industry. There is one exception to this though. You guys may have heard of a company by the name of Systemax, if not you have heard of one of their subsidiaries, Tiger Direct. Systemax’s Ohio factory literally is a giant facility in the middle of cornfields and small towns. I don’t think you could get a more stereotypical representation of what Ohio is to most people. That being said, I jumped at the chance to finally get a peek inside of this random factory that I had come across in the past out in the country.

Nice facilities they have there. It's like the place I've always wanted to work, and they build computers too :laugh: Odd place to put it though unless your trying to hide from all your enemies.

L0rdG1gabyt3: So you probably saw my eyefinity BF3 beta setup/flight sim last year?

This year I'm thinking like four person deathmatch hosted on one of our servers. Maybe TF2 MvM.

I've got some good vendors coming out this year too.

Corsair, NVIDIA, Asus, and AMD should all be there who haven't been there in the past few years. MSI and Intel will be back as always. Probably forgetting a few guys.

Ultra products (accessories) have been majorly revamped too, there's a keen focus on getting it right. I'm fairly hard to impress, but they have some good guys working on that stuff now.

I never knew they were an Ohio company. I will certainly share that with friends and family looking for a retail system who are interested in supporting the local economy.

We started with Dennis Osbourn.. He had a midlife and left. Then we had Susie Merrill. She was really great. She just retired, and now we have Belinda ?Connors? (I believe thats her last name.) She seems very nice.
