Lately we have been getting a lot of questions regarding 8wire LAN and it's new BYOC policy. Let me take a moment to explain simply what BYOC is.

BYOC • buy-ock : Defined as an acronym for "Bring Your Own Computer", as of Desktop or Laptop PC: Often included in an invitation or special event where the host does not supply the computer.

So now that you know what it is, let me tell you what 8wire LAN is doing with it. If you decide to use your own PC at the LAN center we will now accommodate you happy campers any day of the week. This option is no longer limited to JUST LOCKDOWNS. So you can use this feature at any time. Of course at a small premium and those prices are as follows;

Elite 8wire Member BYOC Pricing:Half-Day (7hrs): $8.00Full-Day (14hrs): $16.00

So what are the benefits of BYOC? Well it is your machine, your settings, macros, games and more of course. Anything you download on your machine will be saved as well, unlike our trusty and secure desktops. Also, the pricing to play at 8wire gets a little bit cheaper for you. More time to game, less strain on your wallet. This is 8wire LAN and it's crew saying thank you for being loyal customers and continuing to visit the LAN during these hard economical times. Lastly, by bringing your own PC you get the comfort of your equipment with the same social aspects of the LAN we have all grown to love, hate or tolerate over the years.

So please consider a BYOC next time you head down to 8wire, the same fun at half the price!Thank you on behalf of 8wire LAN and the crew!
