    Buying internationally is a bad idea.

    Not only do you have to pay high shipping costs but also Customs Duties, Customs Brokerage and any sales, use, transfer or VAT taxes your country requires. Then, in the unlikely event you have to send it back for warranty repair you have to pay shipping both ways and then argue with Customs about why you don't owe the Duties, Brokerage and Taxes all over again.

    It is just a lot smarter to buy locally. That is why we don't ship internationally.

    when i order at rock, i don't have to pay extra taxes cause it's in the european union. cool huh ? :p but yeah, i'd rather buy at your company...
    why does rock only offer the white trim? do european resellers get the white trim first?

    Call Rock and see if they are actually shipping yet...let us know.

    (Hint...they don't get anything first...they just advertise it first)

    Now that is FUNNY! I almost forgot about GO-L :D

    The good news is they must have finally taken their fantasies to another planet...or maybe they always were on another planet.

    what about the 300 gb @7200 rpm? ;) donald/justin, any hints?


    i'm not a REAL HARDCORE gamer and i have never even played any games at high, just games like the new nfs series at mid, which my geforce 4 ti 4600 could handle, will i get satisfaction in the 8700?
