wildkard.livejournal.comWhy is it when buying a new computer, they don't ship out a 2 or 3 page spec sheet with it, detailing for the techs *exactly* what's in there. I mean, you know somewhat what's been bought via the sales flyer or receipt which says something like "Onboard 3D Sound" and they're usually kind enough to detail the processor chip "Athlon 1800+ XP"....
But when you buy the thing... it would be good to get a nice little reference from the folks who built the thing as to exactly what every part is... "Onboard Sound - ESS Inc. - ES1373 chip" , "AMD Athlon XP 1800+ - Socket A", "Level 2 Cache..."
Sure this is all easy to find out by those who *pop the hood*... but I'd like to see *some* cooperation from those selling complete systems so that the users don't have to release the case so much.
Just a thought.
