t’s been a great couple of days for Velocity Micro, and I’d like to share the good news. We won TWO major Editors’ Choice awards this week alone.<\/p>\n

From Cnet.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Velocity Micro has earned a reputation in our lab as one of the better desktop builders, and the Z30 gives us no reason to change our opinion.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“To put the [$1,299] Velocity Micro in a larger perspective, its application scores are in the same ballpark as a $6,500 Alienware system we reviewed last November. There’s no mainstream task you can throw at the Z30 it can’t handle.”<\/em><\/p>\n

From PCMag.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“If you know a gamer that drools over the $5,000-plus systems but doesn’t have a load of cash, check this PC out.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“I’m certainly not hesitant on giving the Z30 the Editors’ Choice for midpriced ($1,000 to $1,500) gaming systems, replacing the Gateway FX6800-01e”<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks to everyone–from fans and partners to fellow employees–for your help and support. Let’s keep building great computers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
