This is what [H]ard|OCP had to say about BFG. Looks like they like them. And like wolfie said if you don't like it you can return it.

My ad says ,"Minimum 10 per store. 1 per household. No rainchecks." I thought that meant each store had at least 10, if not more. I still think you should go check it out.

Wow, that's a great deal! Too bad I (A): Don't need a Ti 4200 and (B): Don't live near a Best Buy.

The box design that Asylum is using sure looks like the old Visiontek Xtacy box. I wouldn't be surprised if they have risen out of Visiontek's ashes.

"BFG Technologies is a privately held U.S. based supplier of premium ASYLUM™ brand 3D video cards based on award-winning NVIDIA graphics technology."

You are right! From the Hard OCP article:

"BFG Technologies is currently comprised of a few of folks, and you might already be familiar with a couple of them. Jack Slevin is CEO and John Vosicky is CFO of BFG Technologies. You may or may not be familiar with them, but the next two folks have a very good chance of ringing a bell. Scott Herkelman is Executive Vice President of Operations and Business Development. Scott was once a senior buyer at Best Buy and more recently held the position of Director of Business Development position at VisionTek. John Malley is Director of Marketing and Public Relations and also held a Director of PR position with VisionTek as well."
