Gixxer Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 This is the coolest thing I've ever seen. They're not finished and open yet, but it looks AWSOME so far. They have like 45 or something computers already hooked up to their network and games already loaded, and they have space for people to bring their own computers, and XBOX people as well. And they have a room where you can hook your gear up to a WALL size projection system and 5.1 surround. I went over to the building and checked it out, and I'm excited about it all. Here's a link to their homepage and a link to some pictures in their forum: http://www.cyberjocks.com/ http://www.cyberjocks.com/msgboard/viewtop...c.php?p=835#835 They are actually BETA testing their systems tonight starting at 7pm, if anyone wants to go by and check it out. It's on Sheridan, East of Niag Blvd, on the right. It is pretty sweet! Hey Bob, I was thinking that we could have some really big LAN parties there. I know that you said that your mailing list is too many people to fit at the house, and you were thinking of renting a Hall or something. This may be a descent alternative to that. Just a suggestion.

B.Ob. Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Wow, definately looks pretty cool!!!! I'll definately have to stop by and check it out... Cat6 cabling, are they kidding?! Cat5 or 5e can run giga-bit, but whatever... looks like they are all about high-end stuff, no complaints here!! B.Ob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsbrat Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 I'm pi$$ed.... Several people can figure out why too... *sigh*.... this was exactly what I wanted to do but couldn't find the money to start it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxer Posted March 1, 2003 Author Share Posted March 1, 2003 That's funny! Alan and I talked to the owner and some of the dudes working there, and they said that they have people coming in all the time saying that they wanted to open a place just like it, but they never did. Oh well, I'm just glad that someone did it, and I can't wait to enter my new PC in the Mod contest they're having in the near future.

B.Ob. Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 I'm sure there are MANY people that had the same idea... We were pretty serious about it actually, but never-the-less... Its done by someone and out there, so we can see how they do.... It certainly would be fun, but they have some hurdles to overcome to get some steady income... I'll be VERY intertested to see how they do!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 This cyberjocks could be the thing to watch & learn from since we have an interest in doing something similar as well. I imagine Clarence could use a place like that if not somewhere else in the surrounding area of Tonawanda. I plan on chking out Cyberjocks myself very soon. This is rather humorous since I live like 5 min's from that place & haven't stopped by it yet!! -- Nem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 Yes, I'd be curious to hear your opinion... I've heard both good and bad..... It will take more than a few PCs hooked up on a dance floor to impress you.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 What can I say?! I'm a hard man to satisfy, but at least I'm NICE enough to let people try!! -- Nem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
