Any body have any good examples of stupid computer boxes. Either hardware or software?


I found this highly typical box while scavenging ebay.
notice the card is ISA...

But truthfully, i've seen some really stupid boxes with incredibly unfounded claims, serious spelling/grammar errors, really stupid slogans, or just otherwise unusual pictures and such on the exterior. (The interior of most of these boxes are plain as a gram cracker, only riddled with poorly translated instructions.

It seems weird/futuristic looking women screaming is a common theme on sound cards (a la the Fortisimo II)



piyono, he wasn't saying anything bad about the card, just the box it came in.

Exactly. The card served me well, but like most PC parts it got upgraded.
 
MSI makes some pretty funky motherboard boxes. Mine has some cardboard cutouts of space ships and stupid stuff like that. Not sure if the cut-outs are for your kids while you assemble the machine, or something to paste on your wall as a reminder to how old you are.

In my case it would be for my girlfriend. :bravo:

I like how it doesn't say what's even in the box... "Miracle Computer Card"

maybe we'll get what's pictured on the outside... speed boat, motor cycle, astronaut, and a jet fighter!
