The movie link on the second webpage does the best job of conveying just how funny this situation is; as long as you don't work for Newegg!

But...but...think about the longevity of that hardware! No excessive heat! Absolutely no energy consumption! Lifetime + 100 year guarantee (equal or better replacement parts, only, of course)?!

As for Newegg, I think the company needs to start hiring bipeds with opposable thumbs to work in "quality control." Even really smart chimps would do. Somebody needs to make sure that if it's supposed to come from "Intel," the box doesn't say "Entell."

I'll still use them, they have been a good supplier for me for many years.
