Take a look here: http://www.tomshardware.com/column/20031204/index.html Not too many surprises here. But again, out of the 20,000 people participated in the vote, not too many have first hand experience on every brand in one category and all the awardees in every category. Most of the people would vote the ones they own or the ones they want to own. So maybe a better way to do it is to list each category as one poll and let voters to rate (on 1~10 scale?) each items they have experience with. And for OCers roaming at this site and others, there should be a sub-category in Mobo as the most OC capable boards for AMD and P4. Well, there are a lot of reviews of mobos, cpus and DRAMs already out there already, aren't there?

Chevy Vega made the most innovative engine of the year (no cylinder sleeve) back in 1972. It turned out the most unreliable engine ever produced by GM.

I had a 72 Vega, lasted about 50,000 miles. The V8 diesels GM made in the early 80's weren't much better.
