GeForce4 T-4800 ?

[Ono]

Evesham.com are selling it with one of their systems.


What the fuck is it?

 

[GDW]

A misprint?

 

[S-Gray]

Hmm, yeah looks like it, or its one they "designed"... Google dont bring anything up... altho it does show the T4800 is some sort of Laptop Computer... with GF4 installed

 

[Ono]

Google does bring something up - it is a Ti4600 but running on 8 x AGP.

May call them to confirm.

so it's nothing to get wood about then is it?

 

[Ono]

Phoned Evesham sales line:

Me: I have a query about the GF4 Ti-4800 you have advertised

Sales bod: Yes sir - what's the query

Me: I've never heard of the 4800 before - what is it?

SB: It's a graphics card sir. It draws the pictures on the screen.



Ono - says thank you and puts phone down.

I'd have thought getting wood about a graphics card means you have severe problems...

Yep. I then phoned again - this time going for Option 4 on the telephone Menu - All non-sales enquiries and it went:

Me: Hi - I have a question which your sales people couldn't help me with

All-non-sales-enquiries-bod: Oooh, is this going to be a technical question sir?

Me: Well, erm slightly. (realising I had better come clean) - Oh, OK - yes it is technical.

ANSEB: I'll have to give you a different number sir.

Me: Oh.



Rang Technical support number. Put in queue for 10 mins - gave up.

Yeah... I have a feeling they don't really exist... they're a myth... a faint rumour of a people who set sail from this land a long age ago...

 

[Will]

Hey, I work in tech support...sort of. And I exist.
