View Full Version : My new Shift!
Just picked up my new Shift today. Thanks guys, beautiful job! Gus, nice to meet you today; and to be able to see the new place. Lots of room! And only 15 minutes from my office! What luck to have a place like MAINGEAR so nearby. :-)
I walked in the back and got to see the guys working on machines (and trying to get the place in order from the move). Everyone was very friendly and welcoming - a great vibe.
Thanks for the cool t-shirt!
I would post a picture of my new rig but its not letting me upload any attachment big enough for a photo.

Ooh, I'm envious of your ability to pick up your new Shift, meet the guys, and see the new digs! I might have to make a road trip down there once my new GTI is broken in. Looking forward to your review and pics if you can. Enjoy!
Sorry still having trouble getting photo up...

I'm not normally the envious type, but now...... I'm still not jealous. But I could be. :D
Okay check out the pictures. I love the glowing skull on the motherboard! Extreme edition.

Awesome pictures and I like how with each one it plays as a opening the box and presenting product sequence. :)

God I can't wait til mine gets here! just ordered it, so i got a few more weeks.... and chris, you guys can take as long as u want to tweak it to perfection lol i'll be patient as hell if it means ya'll squeezing out a little more performance! I just hope there's no issues shipping it to a military base. My job in the military is to work with computers, and everyone i know is a gamer, so you can bet i'll be spreadin the maingear love!

Do you mind if I download those pics and rehost them?
Hi Chris, YES that would be great - I was having a hard time making it work right, and there does not seem to be any real space on my account here to upload anything. I would be very pleased to have you do that for me :)

Great pics JPG! Another super clean, ultra cool Shift I wish I had. Nice close-up of the skull. Thanks for sharing, and thanks Chris for the repost. Enjoy!

Awesome pics! Goodluck and happy MGing!
Thanks guys! I feel very lucky that I was in a position to be able to buy a nice rig like this. Its been a great experience.
Chris I posted a few comments as well at http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Maingear_Computers
All of you fellow owners, post up the good word about your experience! I find that so many people post negative comments on the web, but when things go really well, not enough people give credit where credit is due.
Chris/Wallace, don't EVER change your formula at MG. As you get bigger, more orders, etc...keep your attitude and culture going at all costs. Keep your high standards, at all costs. You guys are something special. I have worked at small companies before that grew rapidly, and as they grew they lost their identity and their personal touch with customers. You guys are doing it right - don't let that happen to you. And if HP or Dell want to buy you some day, tell them to go stuff it! lol
