I apologize if what I say below sounds negative. But after literally years of asking questions and getting no answers, it needs to be said. Some of us have asked polite questions on C-USA forums and elsewhere, in true interest in wanting more info on their products as buyers. We either were insulted for it, or we had our threads removed entirely. A blogger criticized them, he was slandered and called a homosexual, among other things, so you'll have to forgive me for being doubting on this go around. I'd love to submit some questions, but I've been asking them politely for a few years now and they have never been answered, so I'm not about to waste my time with it again. My recent questions regarding a 120 watt PSU in a machine that will draw triple that went entirely ignored everywhere I posted it.
Mark my words - this "interview" is either simply not going to happen, or if it does it will be so convoluted and scripted feeling it won't be worth reading/listening to. You are asking for a sheet of questions in advance, but stating that nothing is off the table. Do it live. No advanced questions.
This is pretty much a given that it'll be a sham, a glad handing speech of quasi PR antics. There is absolutely nothing compatible with the conflicting statement of the below:
"Please send over the questions. Include every possible topic you want. I will answer EVERY question submitted, no exceptions, and absolutely nothing is off the table. In fact, if you happen to leave off a few that you think might be too controversial, I'll throw in a few that will finally address every possible issue that has been discussed and dissected ad nauseum over the past two years."
Having questions given in advance, allowing for retorts to be crafted in lieu of actually answering the questions of the top of ones head.
If "nothing was off the table", go on Amiga Round Table. Live. Live as live gets. No questions in advance. Get Rich to host/stream it all live, even if it means doing it as a G+ meetup or chatroom interview. You answer the questions live, as they come in, not with an advanced list of what said questions will be. No advance questions lists - you shouldn't need that if every question is fair game, no?
C-USA, you don't owe us any answers. Really. Even if you answered everyone's questions 110% to their individual liking, there are still some people that simply can't forget your previous actions and your treatment of the community. Me? Your products aren't for me. I'm fine with that, and nothing you could say or do interests me about a PC running Linux in a etched case that is priced at 2x what I could build it for, cost wise. However, I'm not your target market. I'm sure we're both fine with that.
This is not high theater, or a political debate where you have to win us over. For the most part no one here gives a darn about anyone addressing topics in which some seem to feel our worlds rotate around - see the "In fact, if you happen to leave off a few that you think might be too controversial, I'll throw in a few that will finally address every possible issue that has been discussed and dissected ad nauseum over the past two years."" comment.
