I personally don't have any problems with OCZ, but I don't have too many products from them.
But their MIR seemed to have really bad reputation.

I feel the same way, but their MIR isn't too bad. They seem to be ridiculously slow. I had one mid-September and just received it yesterday.

MIRs are always slow, everyone knows that. OCZ is no faster or slower than anyone else. And they aren't even the ones who process them.

If you had a problem with OCZ products, fine. If you don't like the MIR policy, don't buy products with an MIR.

But to wish ill will towards a company that has hundreds or thousands of people working there who are about to lose their jobs is pretty fucked up, imo

In the beginning of the year, I bought a 120GB Vertex 3 drive with $10 MIR. Vertex 3 has been running fine in my MBP *knock on wood*, and I got my $10 MIR. The MIR came as an AMEX gift card, but still $10.

Yeah, I try my best to stay away from MIR.
It peeves me how NCIX advertises something is $xxx.xx after MIR, when really,
that's not true, cause I have to pay tax on the before MIR price.

Got so annoying, I just decided to not deal with MIR.
