TechPowerUp influences your buying decisions?
Is this referring to people's posts and opinions, cause if so then yes. But if it's the News posted at this site, none of that has ever really changed my opinion about anything.

That's why I wrote down "Yes".
Because TPU is where I get ALL of my news, reviews and about the only forums I visit.
Simply nothing like it, and no reason to search for it anywhere else.
TPU has already given me everything.

That's odd, W1z has the IP addresses of all the 30000+ members of the Forums, has everyone's email address already (account activation requires email address to be provided).
