I don't know much about youtube (number stats) since I don't use it, but he seems to be a popular guy. I don't think he's the type of person to represent XC IMO. Tech product hype, consume consume consume (taking a stab on what his videos are about) vs storage and transfer of wealth. He's too small to represent XC is what I'm saying.
almost every one i know in the gaming ( industry ) and computer industry
have seen @ least 1 video from him
so yea he,s kinda a BIG deal ( not pew big ) but still big
dude I am in gaming and computer industry since birth. Was born with a intel 286 attached to my right arm, played wolfenstein, and the original duke nukems, and saw the birth of internet world domination. I have never heard of this guy...
Then you obviously have not been on the net enough or you have not searched for computer deals from NCIX via Slickdeals, fatwallet, etc.
I used to hack games on the Commodore 64, subscribed to dial up with AOL, also played Castle Wolfenstein on a monochrome monitor and I also never "hoid" of that dude!
And I used PriceWatch religiously too
I started with one of these, I am an old timer lol:
