well, if you are Jeremy or Alex, you will allready know my story, if not here goes.
I was at winner's and i bought a 50 dollar 5.1 subwoofer system, 5 speakers, pretty damn good, looked on box about computer specs, which said:All computers with built in sound cards....so i say, awesome, it will work on mine.
but when i got home, started setting it up, it needs a sound card that can handle 5.1 dbss......
so i really mad, i send email complaining to the company saying on the box it said this, but you really need one that has three outputs on it, which i guess do exist..
I haven't got a reply yet, but its only been one day, but i have decided to say what the hell, buy a 50 dollar sound card, which will work, so today i am going out to buy one, i hope.... and thats the story...costs 5 dollars for a transcript

i know all about getting ripped off by computer places.. change a 70$ ram upgrade to a 400 dollar new everything, what the hell.. and dont get me started on how it took them 4 trys to build my computer right when i first bought it.. i find its best if you know someone in the computer feild to tell you if your getting ripped off or not
