so am i and i do like the way i can use it to absolutely humiliate pc world salesmen.
the other day i went in looking at external hard drives (i only went there because i have a 10% student discount) and i was stopped by this cocky salesman who straight away recommended i would get a pc with a core2duo processor saying that it was completely necessary for multitasking and he came out with "i will have the answer to any questions you may have" and i replayed with "ok 4 questions, 1 do you know how much Level 1 and level 2 cache that microprocessor has 2) do you sell anything that has not got an X86 architecture 3) (he bragged a bit about memory) do you know the CAS timings of the ram that comes with that computer and 4) did you know i only came here to look at USB hard drives."
he retreated to a corner as red as a tomato
the morel of the story don't be a cocky pc world salesman
