As I tell most customers, I'm not a salesman, but a consultant. I'm just there to give them as many details as I can, including technical ones, to assist them in purchasing a PC. Anyone can sell a PC, but if you have knowledge about them, thats when you take it to another level.

Yes, I do agree that many salesmen at Best Buy don't know crap about PC's, as I have a few at my department. When co-workers ask me how I know all the stuff I do, I tell them Neowin.net :p

I work in the IT department for a Chemical producing company. I cannot give names for legal reasons within the company and certain going ons which i dont want to be traced to me.

Just so people are aware the above is nothing major like i work for a government agency or anything its just that the company has certain 'groups' that dont like them, so i dont want there to be any chance i could be traced etc to easily. Also i am not sure on the legal side of giving certain details away on the company (even the name at this time), so the above will have to do.

I work for a furniture company based out of Holland, MI. Our main competitors are Herman Miller and Steelcase. I work in the Network Operations Center as a mainframe operator. Since I work 2nd/3rd shift, I also answer all helpdesk phone calls from AROUND THE WORLD (ugh!) and monitor network traffic for the company. I also monitor all of our local and remote servers and wireless connections. On top of that I create accounts ranging from Active Directory/Outlook accounts to TPX/TSO accounts and many many more systems. I also work in our Technology Crib as a reciever...recieving in all tech hardware and software that we buy from CDW (ugh! again) and Dell, Nextell, etc...

When I'm at work not doing to much, im here on Neowin (yeah!).

university student, working for BT as a Frames Technician inside the telephone exchange (this is on a part-time basis...and i make ?8.75an hr)...........makes me laugh at how old the equipment is, the infrastructure of this erm, beloved country, is laughable! will be updated by 2010 apparently though....

oh yeah, and i used to work for PC World......what a rip-off eh? well, they paid bonuses to all staff every quarter on margin (pure profit after all deductions), so wasnt to bad to work there, although i did hate it, and am sooo glad to have left!

      Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • AI Revolution or AI Bubble ? The Trillion-Dollar Question Splitting Wall Street and Silicon Valley

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.
