Title: Tiger TV?
Post by: av8r on January 03, 2003, 08:42:54 AM

Hi Guys,

It's just about time to upgrade again, and I was wondering if this Tiger TV infomercial computer is any good?

see the website with system specs here:
http://www.tigertv.com/power24.asp

Anyone have any comments?
Is the "gamers upgrade" worth the bucks?
How about the flat screen options? Will the resolution be OK for AH?

Thanks in advance for the input.

Why's there an AMD logo displayed with a system that uses a Pentium 4 chip?  

Something always struck me as fishy with all infomercials.  My logic says that if it were a real deal, they wouldn't be selling it at 4am on some bad cable channel.  

I'd say, at very least, go to your local mom and pop computer builder and get a quote from them.  Someone who knows and builds computers, not some slick used car salesman type that refers to the computer's "80 GB of memory" as a selling point.

vid-card should be changed to "gamers" option (gf4ti4600).
