I was in Barnes and Noble today and as I always I stopped by the computer magazine section. There I came across CPU or Computer Power User and looking at the list of writers there was Alex "Sharky" Ross himself. Some of the other writers are Anand Lal Shimpi and Kyle Bennett.

That has to be the LAMEST quote I've seen Dell use.
Hope that helps you. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gifQuote:
From Anandtech's staff page
Anand Lal Shimpi - Editor In Chief
It's not just a coincidence that the site is named after him; Anand founded the site in 1997 and incorporated the company in 1999. Now as Editor in Chief and CEO of AnandTech, Inc. he handles the bulk of the business/management side of running the company as well as controlling the direction of the editorial content. In his “spare” time, Anand attends North Carolina State University as a Computer Engineering major and has a passion for driving and basketball

When torrents of tears flood down your face,
When you're feeling low and life's a disgrace,
Looks back to the good old days of life,
Before you make the slit with the cold silver knife,
When life has no meaning and you don't want to stay,
Remember my friends, it's better to burn out then to fade away...
If I'm not mistaken, he's also doing articles for SmartComputing...

He is head guru/site starter of Anandtech.com (aka probably the biggest hardware site on the net next to toms) I noticed his site has been having a lot of slowdown lately and Anand is basically the only writer left...Quote:

I understand money talks but these guys have no business bearing the Shary name, I haven't seen a decent article (edit: any articles almost) in a long time.

"The art of using troops is this:
When ten to the enemy's one, surround him;
When five times his strength, attack him;
If double his strength, divide him;
If equally matched you may engage him;
If weaker numerically, be capable of withdrawing;
And if in all respects unequal, be capable of eluding him, for a small force is but booty for one more powerful."
Sun Tzu, On The Art Of War
"Don't one of you fire until you see the whites of their eyes."
N.B.: A lesser-known version of this quotation was supposedly said by Frederick the Great at Prague in 1757: "By push of bayonets, no firing till you see the whites of their eyes."
-Colonel William Prescott, Battle of Bunker Hill, 1775
Amen to that. We can all chip in some money to get Sharky back.Quote:
