I browsed a few online discussion boards such as Futuremark, Sharky Extreme, and IGN. Each time Michael's Computers has been mentioned, the boards have been flooded with responses. Some of these discussions have generated HUNDREDs of posts, like this discussion from the
Michael's Computers website front page, March 3, 2004
You can see that they appear to sell laptops and desktops. Here there are a couple things that look interesting. You can see the Marina Del Rey office address up at the top of the page. Later in the article, I will show you that this is NOT an office, but just a mailbox. You can also see a City of Los Angeles Marathon logo is displayed in the upper right corner, which would make a person believe that they sell computers to the marathon.
I called the Marathon coordinators and found out the truth.
| Nick Curl, vice president for Los Angeles City Marathon, said, "I can confirm that Michael's Computers does not sponsor or supply the marathon with any computers." |
