The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Are you the type of person who likes to roll up your sleeves, look under the hood, and perform your own system upgrades and enhancements? Or, are you a ‘board jockey’ who likes to get down and dirty at the chip level to create a custom machine? NotebookReview.com would like to know more and invites you to take our little survey to find out. Participants who finish the survey will be entered into a drawing for a $50 gift card, which of course can be used to buy more parts and build an even better PC!

    NotebookReview.com DIY'er Survey


    Thanks! We look forward to your participation.

    So it is okay that I answered "no" on if I would want to talk with TechTarget about my experiences, right?

    that's fine, you don't have to talk to anyone, I think you contribute enough of your free time to the company as it is by being a moderator :p

    To find out more about the audience in the forums, their interests, age, job roles etc.

    The email address collected from this would not result in getting spam email.

    You should never ask women their ages. We are just going to lie anyway. ;)
