Me talking to my ex girlfriend (This happened about a year ago):
Me: Man my computer is slow.
Her: Ohh that sucks, that's why i have a mac they are super fast!
Me: No they just over charge for medium quality hardware.
Her: You obviously know nothing about computers.
Me: I don't think this is going to work..
Story 1
So I was in library and they were explaining why some parts were blocked off, they said the "Computer Lady" was hooking up the towers for the new computers.
Librarian: So the computer lady should be here to put in the towers...
Girl: THERE PUTTING TOWERS IN THE LIBRARY?!?!
Me: *Facepalm*
Story 2
Some kid shook the mouse and was wondering why the computer wasn't turning on...
Me: Press the silver button!
Kid:*turns on monitor* Still!
Me: How about the one next to the screen...
Class:*cracking up*
I thumbed it down, it's too expensive for what you get, the recommendations are garbage, and the 560s? really? come on people learn before making a video
ok, i'll summarize it
-specs snip
"affordable max performance gaming machine" uhhm, nope a 7970 matches 560ti in SLI, so it would be far beyond the 560s
I went to the Youtube page for that video to see what people were saying in the comments...
I swear, it's like nobody has ever even heard of the 7000 series! I hate how people feel like giving their opinion on a topic just because they have retained bits and pieces of information from conversations they have heard.

They all suck. They just suck differently. Sort of like prostitutes.

yep, ignorance born from ignorance, yet another reason to teach it in school, should recruit /vg/ and have them tear it apart, would love to see a red lightsaber under the vid

If high schools taught computer hardware classes I think companies like Dell and HP would have to change their business practices or be prepared to face the wrath of its consumers :tongue.gif:

lmao my school teaches pre-ap computer science, ap computer science, and web mastering. None of these courses have covered anything about hardware haha

All for the software, but they really need to touch on the hardware, find an old computer and just have them gut it down the the motherboard, and explain it
Would love to see how Apples stocks would do >8^)

They would campaign against it saying it is a dangerous health risk to children, they could eletrocute themselves and get cancer and become sterile from the dangerous materials found in windows PCs. But you can't teach kids with macs, because they weren't meant to be opened up and break if they do.
Today one of my friends in my computer science class said he wanted to upgrade his computer and that he wanted to go all out on it. He then stated he wanted to put in 4 i7's and 128 GB of RAM.

I read that he wanted to put in 417 MB... I was confused?
I hereby send this challenge to everyone: Build a system that DOES have exactly 417 megabytes of ram. No more, no less, and you can't add extra and pretend that it doesn't exist. In binary, that's 11010000100000000000000000000 bytes of ram.

Lol. I first read that as 128 MEGAbytes of ram.

O god 4 i7's and 128 MB of RAM lol That would just be wrong

He's buying a ~11 year old workstation graphics card?
Also any post in this thread that was posted by user 'SysEng' is pretty stupid(see page 3 for an epic response though)
That was painful to read, but some of those were absolutely gold.
Brilliant
I once heard: "Well, I don't care, I'm not the one who is paying for it so yahh"
