You guys should have asked if you wanted someone, who is actually living in Taipei, to attend Computex. I would have been more than glad to have done it.

Thanks guys
UkJenT, OCC obviously needed to send a staff member. Plus, it wasn't just the show, there were some factory tours on the mainland as well, which you'll be seeing coverage of soon. -------------------- :: DIGG OCC! :: OCC Rules :: OCC Gaming :: ![]() Intel Core2Quad Q6600 | Foxconn MARS P35 4GB G.Skill PC2-6400 (5-5-5-15) | ATI Radeon HD4850 2x 74GB Raptors | 750GB | 1TB Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS | Antec P180B Macbook Core2Duo 2GHz 3GB RAM 250GB HDD |

Nice Coverage Kash! Although I have to say, the manufacturers are lame, most of the stuff you saw was already at the CeBit in March
