Re: [Staffslug] website

I personally wouldn't endorse Overclockers either, and I certainly wouldn't inflict that grief on anyone else willingly. The sad fact of the matter is that they're the only major retailer (that I can think of) in the Staffs area. If you ask me (personally) I think it's far too subjective to be based on every member's good/bad experiences (and I know how ironic that sounds given my personal gripes.) I think we should be a little more impartial as a public organisation; sponsorship of larger organisations seems a little futile, given that they're unlikely to show any gratitude in return for our support, if they even notice. Perhaps smaller companies (i.e. LinITX, or KustomPCs) would be preferable. But if I'm honest, I'm not sure it's a great idea to go over-board with corporate recommendations on the website. Promoting local open-source companies is perfectly fine, but I'm not entirely certain that large e-tailers really require our help (and not when the arguments stemming from this idea will most-likely get a few backs up on the list.) Am I talking rubbish, or does this make sense to anyone else?
