Because, that indeed I have a hard time believing...
I got my start by having a build on the cover of CPU Magazine. After that I got Nvidia (knew them from PDXLAN) and the others just came after that. Most of my sponsors I know from LAN events (Nvidia, AMD/ATI, Danger Den, Crucial, Asus, Koolance). It helps to be able to meet people face-to-face. And NaeKuh is right, it is not the land of milk and honey. You have to work hard, produce and produce often which I why I kick out so many builds. I think AMD/ATI is the only vendor who contacted me first and that was at an event when they heard I was doing a project for Nvidia at the time.
