I originally thought this was a hoax because it had a history that didn't exist, a stock ticker that didn't exist, and claimed that 7 years after 9/11 was 1996... but now the editor has explained that it was actually a fictional company in a series of Youtube skits. We don't have any articles on that youtube skit itself (that I can find).
In the best of worlds we'd merge this into the youtube skit page, but I don't even know if that would qualify as notable. I'm confident that an in-universe aspect of a possibly notable youtube skit is not. Shadowjams (talk) 06:24, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - as a fictional company with no demonstrable notability. No sources are provided. Searching for sources, the term "Maximum computers" turns up all sorts of stuff, but qualifying it with Bedle and Tuse turns up nothing but the wikipedia page. -- Whpq (talk) 14:33, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
