Introduction
Well I've been
doing allot of "Upgrade Parts" Reviews lately, and the good
folks at AMK Services have sent along a little gem. An inexpensive way
to make it easier move your system around.
There has been a trend in System case makers to include convenience
items in their products to make you want to pick their case over someone
else's. Many of these ideas are simple gimmicks that us poor dumb users
fall for hook line and sinker. This is something I assure you that is
not a gimmick. Rather, its a well constructed, easy to install upgrade
to your system. It wont make it run faster, wont allow graphics to jump
out and smack you in the face, and it certainly isn't going to help
your download times over the Internet. It will however make the annoying
task of constantly reaching behind your computer to plug in and unplug
everything a thing of the past. If your a LAN party goer, or like me
is forever taking my systems off line to tinker, you will LOVE this
product for its convenience if nothing else.
