Easy. There is a niche out here who are tired of junk. Businesses
especially. We've honestly NEVER had a machine fail unless it was acted
upon from the outside, such as power surge. We use all top shelf parts
that have multi-year manufacturer's warranty and are here for face to face
support.
We can easily hold others accountable if we use the retail components rather
than the OEM. 3 years on the Intel processor, 3 on the motherboard, 5 years
on the hard drive, etc. If a part fails, we swap it out and rma the bad
one. But that very rarely happens anyhow.

Global warming. Melts the polar ice. Screws with the global climate.
Ice is melting at the poles. That's a fact.
It's melting because of a raise in temperature. That's obvious.
