Just had this emailed to me as I quite often buy stuff from SVP, basically they're offering people in the UK free PC upgrades in return for them invading your home with a film crew, so they can build up a catalogue of videos for their new site. Personally I wont be bothering, I love my PC as it is and I'll do my own tinkering with it, but for those less confident with pooters it's a chance for a nice custom built PC. No harm in applying anyway.

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

So the most it can cost you is a few cups of tea and some biscuits!!

Lol probably not, they'd be bankrupt pretty fast and I'd imagine they'll be cherry picking people with old crappy rigs, course theres nothing to stop you hiding your big gaming rig and popping an old P3 system under your desk for when they arrive

Well you never know they might pick a high end rig or two for some OCing tutorials, so they could fix you up with a new CPU cooler and RAM, maybe a new mobo if they feel like it.

Or they just could go to nearest OC guru with cascade compressor and LN2 cup. Maybe give the LN2 needed for free and the guy gets publicity. Thats Finny owned.

I think this won't come cheap as a service when its up and running tho.

But yeah someone will get decent puuter from this marketing trick.
