No one ever said that around deep blue episode. Now some dudes do here. Why? I've always welcomed opponents at major hardware. Nothing as cool as fighting against the utmost highend. Today i run myself at one, so i guess only in a few idiot forums such statements get done. The guy around the corner finds it very cool that Michael Schumacher has better tyres and a better engine than the guys who ended 10th in the championship. "of course you equip yourself with the best stuff if you can afford that!" I remember the US bobslaying teams at olympics 2002. No one complained their bobslay was way better than any other one. Of course, if you can get a good one, get it!! Where did you post at the time complaining against that?
