I have had them in the past. They don't work like they do on TV I can tell you that, and their customer service sux big time. If you have a lot of co-workers/friends that are on it, the PTT feature is nice.
Have a nice Beer!!!

I got one about a year ago. Ended up upgrading a lot of stuff on it. But if you have a local military base around ya anywhere and a friend thats 21 and a military ID....get your kegs from there! Last keg I bought was 1/2 keg of Bud Light for 55 and no tax!
We couldnt even buy Natural Light for less than 60 anywhere else....bigggg difference!
Made my money back on it in less than a month when I found out bout the 55 dollar kegs!

Theres no base that I know of. We can get bud light for around 65 at other places but my "other" ID isnt here yet so I have to stick with the place right down the street from me. Me and my friends went in on it and we have made our money back as well.

We are into flip cup a lil more than beer pong. I dont have the patience!
The table isnt 4x8 by any means but it was right around 1500 caps or so to do this. If you need any tips let me know!

Wow nice to see the OT back in business on the 7.3 board. Thanks Jim!
Well all, I'm on here for unexpected reasons tonight.
Waterpump on the cheap took a dump tonight. Guess what I get to do on Friday.
Luckily the AZ here has one in stock, along with upper and lower hoses for good measure.
Dan, how hard is a WP on a 5.2? I hear its no big deal just have to get around the bypass hose ontop of the thermostat.

ok, what in the world is a phenom? My last 2 workhorse computers were dual xeon's.... last 2-3 video cards I bought were anywhere from $800-$2100.00, and my current box is a quad core 3.0 Q9650 with 4 gb of ram and twin SATA 150 GB drives. I don't game..... I use it for engineering drawings...This things may be a bit faster than the dual Xeon 2.8 I was using.... but I think its primarily the ram and video card changes.
