Fremont, CA (Vocus) May 6, 2009
Corsair®, a worldwide leader in high-performance computer and flash memory products, today announced it was honored with one of RetailVision’s coveted Best Selling Product Awards in the e-tail PC RAM Best-Seller category.
RetailVision Spring 2009, produced by Everything Channel, took place April 27-30 at the Boca Raton Resort in Boca Raton, FL. The award program was supported by research from The NPD Group, the leading global provider of consumer and retail market research information.
Corsair earned the e-tail PC RAM Best-Seller award for its 4GB XMS2 DHX memory kit (TWIN2X4096-6400C5DHX), which achieved the highest sales totals in both retail and e-tail markets for 2008.
Corsair’s Director of Sales, North America, Anthony Andrews, accepted the award from Everything Channel Vice President and Channelweb.com Editor, Larry Hooper.
“Corsair is proud to accept this award, and we’d like to thank our retail and e-tail channel partners for helping make our 4GB XMS memory kit a true best-seller.” Said Tony Andrews, Director of Sales, North America, “We could not have achieved this milestone without the strong relationships that enable Corsair and our partners to work together to deliver this outstanding product to gamers and enthusiasts. We look forward to continuing our mutual success in 2009 as we lead the way with a complete range of high performance DDR3 memory solutions for the new Intel® Core® i7 and AMD Phenom II platforms.”
Thanks to its leadership in PC memory technology and expertise in the PC gaming market, Corsair was instrumental in discovering and raising awareness of the benefits of using at least 4GB of memory in systems designed for high-performance gaming (see http://www.corsair.com/4gb-upgrade), helping to drive demand and sales.
The award for a 4GB kit of gaming memory highlighted the importance of PC gaming products to the retail channel, and from the show floor to the boardrooms, the latest in gaming gear was top of mind for many retailers at RetailVision Spring 2009.
In addition to the e-tail PC RAM Best-Seller award for Corsair, awards were given in a host of other categories, from wireless networking gear to multifunction printers. Each award recognized the cream of the crop in the retail and e-tail landscapes for 2008. The winners were chosen using the market analysis firm the NPD Group’s retail sales tracker, which aggregates product sales from 100 retailers and e-tailers, representing roughly 20,000 storefronts.
Stephen Baker, NPD Group vice president of industry analysis recognized the Best-Sellers’ achievements, and commented that other manufacturers can learn from their success.”It is important that manufacturers realize that every step they take at retail and e-tail counts,” Baker said. “It’s this kind of data and recognition that helps vendors understand what they need to do to be successful in partnering with retailers and e-tailers.”

3 Motivational Quotes From Amanda Beard & Dara Torres
Posted by Parkzone Corsair in Memory on December 18th, 2010
The summer Olympics are just weeks away so I decided to write an article about two amazing women, Amanda Beard and Dara Torres. Both will be competing this year at the 2008 Games. Not only are both amazing athletes, but they are also motivational speakers. I have put together three of my favourite quotes from Amanda Beard and Dara Torres to show the admiration of these two Olympic stars and celebrate the upcoming 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
Â
Dara Torres
Dara Torres is the first American swimmer to compete at four Olympic Games and has racked up a total of nine Olympic medals – 4 gold, 1 silver, and 4 bronze. Dara successfully competed at the 1984, 88, 92 and again at the 2000 Olympic Games. She is now breaking her own record with her 5th Olympic Games in Beijing this summer.
Â
“They may become harder to achieve, but your dreams can’t stop because you’ve hit a certain age or you’ve had a child.”
Â
“The water doesn’t know what age you are when you jump in, so why not?” (commenting on entering her fifth Olympics at age 41)
Â
“When I first started, people said I was an inspiration, but I think it’s been a complete 180 turn. I have so many people coming up to me now and telling me about their stories and what’s changed in their lives, and I feel like I’m getting inspiration from other people.”
Â
Amanda Beard
Amanda is a 7-Time Olympic Medalist, a model with numerous magazine covers, and a national spokesperson for various companies. Amanda Beard became the second-youngest gold medalist in USA Swimming history (only Pokey Watson was younger than Amanda in 1964 winning the 400m free relay gold at 14 years and 96 days old) by winning her first Olympic gold, swimming on the medley relay. She is also a five-time U.S. national champion and has set an American record in the 200m breaststroke during a World Cup in 2002. Amanda Beard will be entering her 4th Olympic Games this summer in Beijing.
Â
“When I look back on it, it’s fuzzy – like a dream. I can’t really remember everything; it’s just like a childhood memory to me. I didn’t know too much about what was going on, I just kind of swam. Sure, there was publicity going on about me being so young, and it’s really weird to be 14 and have all that stuff happening to you, but then again, you’re so young and childish you sort of blow it off.” (on her 1996 Olympic experience)
Â
“I concentrate on preparing to swim my race and let the other swimmers think about me, not me about them.”
Â
“I hope that looking back at my career and as other people look back at my career I hope that I’ve opened a lot of doors and opportunities for other people. I know a lot of people get on my case a lot because I’ve done a lot of things outside of the pool I’m trying to open doors I’m trying to create more interest in swimming and bring more sponsors into the sport so swimmers that are coming up behind me can have a career in it.”
Â
I’ll be supporting both swimmers back here at home and wishing them luck this summer at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
