The big brown box

Before we start ripping the DiGiDice apart, let's take a quick look at what ABIT put into the big brown box that came with this review unit.


A nice big box that smelled rather good, seriously!

The first thing I noticed when I pick up this big brown package was the smell. Somehow, it was not the usual new-hardware-scent that we have been accustomed to whenever we buy something new. Instead, the box actually smelled as if it was scented with perfume!

With my curiosity piqued, I opened the box only to be stunned and surprised by what I saw.


Isn't that a bottle of scented oil??!!!

I was literally LMAO! Essential oil??? With that exception, the packaging of the DiGiDice's accessories and parts was very professional and well done. Kudos to ABIT for not skimping on packaging! The brown box was rather strong and fully capable of withstanding abuse.

Now, let's take a look at what ABIT provided in the big brown box!
