And s**g off SR you did.
Okay, sorry for the lenghty delay but it's been a madhouse round here for the last... blimey, that's almost a month. No matter, because we've picked a winner. A lot of you simply suggested we sell stuff cheaper, or 'knock off a tenner to make it look good' which isn't really very productive - what we were looking for was a mixture of suggestions for new products, and how best to promote the ones we have. And the person who did that the best was...
DeltaJava.
Well done matey, you win a Game or DVD of your choice up to the value of £50. He suggested we take a look at our prices of stuff like Encarta and Paintshop Pro, compared to other retailers, and tipped us off about some new products to stock like USB2.0 and more TV cards. Basically, his collection of suggestions was the most complete, and for that, he is rewarded. If you scroll back through the topic, his posts are highlighted in yellow.
Anyway, thanks to the rest of you for all of your posts, we'll take the into consideration. Even the ones about boobs and stuff. You kids. Complaints to the usual address, I'll ignore them like I always do.

Here's a really good chance to sl*g off SR.
Take a look at our range of PC parts and peripherals. i.e. anything which works in, with or connects to a PC.
What's missing from the range?
Where are we out of date or over-priced?
Which descriptions fail to do justice to the products?
For example you could tell us that our A03 drives are out of date and over priced and that we should be selling the A04. (posted by Bonzo Banana did yesterday)
You do NOT need to post all of your suggestion in one post. ALL of your posts will be added together for the selection process.
Closes Thursday August 1st.
Mr Snuuuuggly will extract the thread and pass it to our PC Buyers who will say 'Oh my God, what clever customers we have'. They (the un-named and un-shamed) will determine the winner.
Winner gets a full GAD prize. Only one winner folks.
(er-thanks in advance guys. And none of those "getting us to do their work" jibes PLEASE!)

Yes please.
By PC buyers, do you mean the section of SR that deal with buying in computers?
Chill Winstons, this compo is in the middle of being judged - as soon as the winner has been decided, I'll make sure you're the first to know.
Yes i also especially the voice activational gamepad looks particuarly interesting apart from the mag/web didn't really give much info on it. I suppose that more stats will be comming in next issue and when it does i'll be there to buy it.
One suggestion for new stuff is downloadable (but buyable) game mods as most you find elsewhere are virus and junk ridden and never seem to work
(nothing aggainst mod makers)

You could sell liquid cooling systems and neon strip lights for PC modding. I know that if you offered to install them for me, I might consider buying a liquid cooling system and a neon light.
Neon strip lights are cool.
Neon strip lights are cool.
