    Hey y'all,

    We are going to do an interview with Raul Sood. I would like to collect a bunch of good questions from the Voodoo fans and notebook community here on NBR.

    Similar articles will be written up for a few other companies I have contacts at, so universal questions are OK and will probably be reused in the future. I'll post in the relevant forums as things firm up.

    I have some general questions from the Toshiba interview already, but I would like to get your input too.

    Post your questions over the next few days and I'll select some (and give credit of course).

    Cheers!

    Perry

    I want to know when the Vootique is coming back, and when the new forums are supposed to be up.
    I also want another shirt, I have been calling sales for weeks on shirts, and I want one. They better get me one after spending $7000+ on my U709.
    I dont want to hear the HP b.s. that they cant ship textiles anymore. I bought a Voodoo not an HP, I want my shirt.

    I also want another mousepad, my original one is wearing down, and I do not want to have to pay a lot for it.

    i think one of the biggest "obstacles" voodoo has in marketing their product is that they are dubbed ad "re-branded" clevos...

    i love what alienware did, getting proprietary designs and image, product that sets it's product aside in comparison to other laptops.

    what does voodoo has in plan for their notebooks?
    when will we see real voodoo products in the market?

    Why is your stuff so overpriced?
    Why are they called voodoo?
    Why am I not doing this interview?

    How can a company build such beautiful, extremely expensive gaming machines, yet not be able to put up a site with forums which actually work?

    Do you intend on having a bigger part in building your laptops in the near future and try to minimize the re-branded Clevo "feel"?

    Another thing, even if they get anotehr Chassis ie. not a Clevo, who would pay for it due to their super high prices?

    Good questions. Ravi told me in an interview a couple of years ago that they were going to start making their own chassis. I imagine that is well underway now with the extra resources of HP.

    Thanks y'all!
