Updated: The Atomicans' Choice Awards

New details on the poll to find out what kit's most popular amongst Atomicans.

You said it, we listened.

We've gone through the survey for the Atomican's Choice Awards and made a few changes. We've updated things like the ISP details, and are now letting respondents fill in products however they wish. Also, the sponsors questions have been altered so that those that are not applicable can be marked as such.

We want to build a picture of the typical Atomican desktop PC with this survey, so your help is appreciated.

Thanks for your time, guys.

VOTE NOW!

I was wondering what an ISP model is. By the way, I've only got Dial-Up unfortunately. It's got unlimited monthly download usage though, not that I can really take advantage of it.

If we already filled it out before, did you want us to fill it out again?

If you've already completed it, then your results are in the system. If you've not finished - like stuub above - then it'll likely be a bit easier to finish :)

My system is crap, but I think it is worth a try. :P

It's not about judging systems - rather finding out what most Atomicans use. And crap or not, everyone goes into the prize draw :)

You'll probably find out that most Atomican's systems are crap. Mine's bad too.

Upgraded my aging 7 yr old p4 system late last yr, damn that thing kept going and giving... I probably went a bit overboard with the new shitbox but it's a beast.

This survey should be interesting.

Interesting brand alignment questions.

I also feel crap now for not owning an X-Box.

Well that got me fit - running back and forth between the Dinning room / PC Den & my Garage where all my component boxes & manuals are stored looking for model numbers for my 3 pc's (kids use 2). If I have a heart attack, who do I sue. lol

Who needs a Xbox when you got a Wii ??

Well antifunker I don't feel crap for not owning an X-Box. I must be going against the flow, PC gaming for me.
Just as well I'm a bit anal, that spreadsheet with parts I stuck into my PCs is very handy. Also a little scary when I look at the discards column. I could have bought half a car.
