  1. Very Fast Windows PCs by Kwiik · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I wonder if they said it this way because they actually were hiding that the only way they're fast, is that it'll configure itself and sacrifice performance?

    What do you think? They're very fast performing Windows PCs, or very fastly assembled? Having worked in HP tech support, I'd say let's go for the latter.
