    I have the red version of those somewhere around here.

    Got them as an award for a ghetto mod I did a few years ago. :)

    AFAIK they were made 6 or 7 years ago.

    Haha. Fail.

    I've got one sitting in my desk, just because.

    I'm actually quite surprised we haven't seen merchandise for Bit take off again yet, something for thought methinks! :D

    Well considering Kustom must have had those in stock for 6 or more years, and they still have 80+ in stock, maybe the only way we would buy merchandise is if we could download it "to test" first:D

    You could suggest to the powers that make the decision to use a place like Cafepress means you can sell lots of Bit-Tech/Custom PC gear at next to no cost to you guys.

    There was a topic in the CPC forum a few months back about it. here

    As much as I love BT, the logo doesn't lend itself to clothing lines.

    The printing methods you'd have to use for the purple spot and the text over it (Specifically on a black tee) would look horrible. It'd be just about passable on a white tee, since you could do a black/white letter combo. On top of which, circular prints tend to cost more to do - given the relatve complexity of a circle compared to a square.

    Let's also no forget that Cafepress quality is absolute **** - Be better off using Spreadshirt or something, but their profit margins are so slim it'd be a waste of time doing anything but a limited run and jacking the price.

    Easier to make your own - Probably last just as long as cafepress :p

    I'd buy 2 or 3 of just the circle/net/01's. at 44,000 odd member, even if 25% bought one, it wouldn't be at a loss.

    Oh, no, I'm sure there wouldn't be a loss.

    I'm just suggesting that the cost of doing a decent job of it would probably be high enough for the idea to seem silly to the bean counters - I expect that Dennis make the financial decisions now, too. I get the impression they'd want to see a higher profit than would be achieved from the endeavour :p

    Sir....you are old school!

    Maximum respect for having a Bit Tech case badge on your case. Also props to Kustom for still letting us purchase this fine item.

    BTW have some rep for an excellent case badge!!!

    I could see the old logo being used on a t-shirt, especially on the side as opposed to front and center. Something along these lines (first one I could find on Google):

    I would totally buy one. I say we commission Gunsmith!

    I think they only come in two colors for adults: Brown, and Brown w/corn.

    But I hear they started making Green ones in child sizes!
