DH seal of approval

I would love to walk into a store or order online a computer from Dell, Alienware for instance, with the DH seal of approval.
Wouldnt it be a hoot to see the DH emblem for instance on a DH customized or model laptop or desktop. I wonder if that is in the works for the future?

Well considering we dont really review full systems very often I doubt you will see a DH logo on a laptop.

We do have our logo on quite a few products however, we get over 1 million unique readers a month, which is ten times more than the biggest UK pc magazines circulation.

haha... it's not meant in a bad way. But I really wouldn't have thought DH was that well known in the world. But then again, 1 million viewers on the xxx billion people on the earth, in % it still isn't that much.
I guess my thoughts that DH was relatively small is because not everyone who visits the forums/reviews posts stuff as well.

anyway, it's good to hear DH is that well-visited.

There's also the DH review award of whatever that product scored on a few products at CCL > Linky
I've also seen a couple of DH Heavenly Hardware awards in a couple of my magazines. Nice job

I see that occasionally, and you can google that too. But imagine the Alienware Galaxy edition of their premiere laptop with the DH seal of approval, now that would raise some eyebrows. I think it would be a hoot to know Veridian 3 tested and approved of a desktop or a laptop, etc.
Kinda like James May from Top Gear giving my Mercedes a thumbs up and a facial implosion on camera of sheer uber smugness..LOL
where was I, oh yeah..
Alien has their moniker...
A DH emblem on an Alien would be da shizzel dizzel..(as my son would say in Yabo speak)

Meh, alienware....

the only problem with approveing a full fledge multi component product is that you only get to play around with it for awhile to review it.. usually new ... (makes sense yes)..

it's to bad a review could be finalized after a year or better use of it. lol

I forsee in the near future the DH endorsement on some high end products driving some real interest in the consumer tech world and companies aggressively looking for a niche in the market based on reviews and interest generated by Driverheaven.
When I hear this or that about a product tested on Tomshardware or other sites, certainly if a review already exists in DH I tell folks to look there as well, and I always hear about how slick the graphics are for the reviews, and how easy it was to navigate as well, but then no one can compare common reviews to an in depth DH review. It isnt possible to compare a popular review of common products to anything on DH. I honestly dont think other sites devote the time and effort to producing reviews of the quality you see here on DH. I always here "those graphics kick ass". Those reviews may had persuaded someone to buy a product or not to buy a product based on the performance results, but also on the aesthetic and users experience.
DH is impressive compared to so many others, and I believe it is incomparable.
