www.mdg.ca

that is the website of MDG canada, a PC builder company. Now back in the day, they were a pretty good company. but now I fear they are missleading consumers. I feel this because people ask me about them.

INTEL® PENTIUM® 4 PROCESSOR 3.2GHZ -
FREE UPGRADE TO TWO CORE INTEL® PROCESSOR (2x2.8=5.6GHz EQL.)

Now sure a core2duo can out perform a 3.2Ghz Processor, but I don't believe in single threaded applications you can claim it will be eqivilant to 5.6Ghz. but that is the type of questions I am getting, asking if it is worth upgrading from a 3.2Ghz processor machine they currently own to a 5.6Ghz machine. AAHH.

1000GB (1 Terabyte) WESTERN DIGITAL® Whisper Quiet SATA2 HARD DRIVE with super fast 7200 RPM, 16 MB Cache, Data Lifeguard Tools™ and ShockGuard™ Technologies

WD, does not make a 1000Gb HDD, they do not say 1000 gb via 2*500Gb, which they should.

MDG are crooks and a half. back when i was in hgih school, I thought Dell's quality was the worst in the world. Then i discovered a little company clled MDG. they sold a computer to my friend and EVERYTHING broke in it since. Literally everything. Disk drive, mobo, power button...EVERYTHING. Plus their didleys they put on their commerials are annoying.
