Directron.com LAN 2004
Mr. Red and I arrived in Huston for the www.Directron.com LAN Event
The event seats 500, it was about half filled.
We setup in the Battlefield tourney area along with some of the regulars from the AMDZone.com LAN Events
There was of course lots of give-aways from Directron and other vendors.
There was streetfighter to play.
And Halo on X-Box
There was a cool big screen connected to a computer for gaming.
There was an clear modded Intel case on show at one of the vendor booths.
I think they missed the point, and just filled it with as much stuff as they could.
In the Directron Mod contest there was a cool watercooled shuttle PC that won third place.
Mr. Red won second place with Deja, his hand made wood computer.
I won first place with the ATI/AMD PC.
This was the PC's event test run just before it will be totally complete.
The PC ran great, both thermally and in gaming.
Between Mr. Red and I we got lots of misc stuff.
The best being a watercooling kit, and a PC Case.
But the prize for the worst freebie ever goes to Enermax.
I don't even understand this thing, it's a Plexiglas flower attached with a spring to a twisty straw. The straw has a pen on the end, and a gel-looking shoe to hold the pen.
What in the world does this have to do with enermax power supplies???
