At least now I get to find out what was really meant by 'insurance backed' warranty.

Rock were better than alienware, pegasus 665 was built on same chassis as alienware 15.4" machine at the time + it had same hardware, for a third less £s and no alien face, sex.]]>May 8th 2008 11:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/08/rock-falls-under-administration-now-up-for-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/08/rock-falls-under-administration-now-up-for-sale/

A lot of users there with experience in notebook issues, plus cake,

Rock were going down for some time it seems - there support and repairs were seriously lacking

"This stock misappropriation, as reported by the Kenilworth Weekly News, was performed by now former head of sales, Paul Bicknell. He had joined the company at the age of 16 and worked his way up through the ranks and became involved in the sale of components to a spare parts company called CFA Trading. This, it seems, proved too much of a temptation for the man, who began siphoning off money through the accounts of local forecourt garages.


The money he stole, reportedly £220,000 in total, was used on hiring expensive cars and online gambling. His solicitor has been quoted as saying that Bicknell was living in "something of a fantasy and unreal world", making up stories to his colleagues about how he had been adopted and that his real mother lived in the US, was an heiress, exceedingly rich and was sending him money to fund his increasingly opulent lifestyle. Shortly after leaving the company, Bicknell also broke into the company's warehouse and stole over £10,000 worth of equipment."
