Computer Repairs


As a gamer, there's certainly trouble in paradise when my computer is out of commission. As of now I'm in the process of repairing some bad parts in my machine. I had to replace my Abit i35 pro motherboard  so I was  browsing their site to get into contact with their customer server and I couldn't find a link to it. Sure enough, my friend checks wikipedia and the whole company is out of business. NOWHERE on its perfectly functional website does it mention that the company no longer exists! Check out the site yourself Abit website. The only hint is if you look at the most recent announcement it is from 2008, lol. Anyway, I ended up getting a   GIGABYTE board instead (shown below). Does anyone else think its strange that this company went out of business but they don't even mention it on their website? It seems typing a short announcement would be the least they could do.

  4. Running a pretty similar setup that I have on one of my boxes. I guess since they are out of business no need to be courteous.
