ASRock was an Asus spinoff but was later bought by Pegatron (which is part of the Asus holdings).

Well the spinoff seems to be better

Yeah, it's weird because often enough the spinoffs may even share some infrastructure, but it's the pricing and support that are different.

Another good example is Virgin Mobile, which belongs to Bell, but their pricing and service are generally better.
