Soon after our news coverage of this PSU at CES, there were some emails exchanged between MGE and me. IIRC, they wanted... hmm... how to put it?... to treat SPCR like a prostitute... w/o even being paid! I think they figured the PSU sample would be payment enough. They wanted...
1) control of editorial content -- they wanted to approve the review first, make changes at their will, and no changes after it was posted
2) to put ad banners up on SPCR for free along w/the review
This w/a multi-page legalese agreement to sign all rights away to them...
uh, thanks but no thanks.
IMO, this has to be a flashy, overpriced PoS. Why else would they only go to review sites that have zero capacity to tell you anything meaningful about the unit? Every review only praises their products w/o any substance for the praise.
Mike's rule #12:
If it looks like bling, that's all it usually is.
PS -- rule #11: If it smells like shit, that's what it is.
rule #13: If you want editorial control, go build your own dang media site.
