also, it seems that Shanze finds it impossible to take anything he believes others should do and apply it to himself… being that he sees himself as perfection

If he believes in Jesus so much, then maybe he should follow his teachings. I don’t think Jesus would give customers $100 off a computer for bringing in their concealed carry permit!

In response to Al on June, 8th…

The difference between “Superdell” and Matthew Lesko
(the government grant book guy) is that Lesko is normal when off camera (not true, just not when in commercial)
Lesko was on the Daily Show and was actually a very nice and interesting guy, Shanze on the other hand is always crazy and out of control… Shanze, take some credit for your own actions… you’re the mormon, act like one… there is something called humility ya know

I just came from Nvidia’s website– I can find no mention of Mr. Shanze OR Totally Awesome Computers.

Go figure.

Marketing isn’t just about name recoginition, it also involves building brand equity. Clearly , Mr. Superdell has not understood that the brand that he is creating through his commercials is one that offends some people. Many (most even) people make purchase decisions based on brand more than price, look at cars, or clothes. Price is just one piece of the puzzle.

If that guy was legitimately scared, then perhaps he was justified in brandishing his side-arm. Heck, I know if I was packin’ my .45, I wouldn’t have any quams about pulling out the barrel if I was afraid for my life.

As for the marketing, it’s obvious he makes a lot of money from it; thus, he’s justified in however he gets his message across, right, right?? I mean, money is the measure of all things, so yeah, he’s a freaking loony, marketing genious.

I understand the “genious” in marketing and getting your name dropped in a lot of places, but name dropping because of crazy boy pulling out a glock isn’t exactly the best marketing tool.

He is crazy, but look how much we are talking about him due to that craziness! Craziness, dare I say genious. (well, a mild, marketing genious, that is)

He always seemed a little ‘off’ to me too. He reminds me of that guy with the crazy suit on TV trying to sell you his book of secret ways to save money the government doesn’t want you to know about. Crazies, the both of them.

Odd.

I don’t know if there is a better word to describe this cat.
