Get a load of this all you AMD fanbois,

3.
If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.


Here is some more...


2. Are you finding programs on your computer that you don't remember installing?

Your son will probably try to install some hacker software. He may attempt to conceal the presence of the software in some way, but you can usually find any new programs by reading through the programs listed under "Install/Remove Programs" in your control panel. Popular hacker software includes "Comet Cursor", "Bonzi Buddy" and "Flash".



ok ok I do not know if this is a parody but the guy actually argues with people in the forum.... non knowledgeable dad or parody? ROFL!

Evil commie AMD chips!

Be a good American, Buy Intel, the microprocessor of the god-fearing GOP :laugh:

If it looks like manure, smells like manure, and if you're dumb enough to taste it afterwards, it will probably taste like manure, and in fact be manure. Like this BS. Time for a lock.

Maybe you should have titled the thread along the lines of Internet Idiocy instead of an attack on an American company.

heh you got girly man macs, just kidding, but man I hate working on those things.....the customers that bring them in are like aol peeps, but bitchier!

These 2 guys brought us in one of the ones that look like just a screen and said they wanted to take it back for having loud fans...I was in a dickish mood so I took him back in the shop and showed him our quad setup we were building with 4 opterons and these MEGA loud TT HSF and 12 80mm, yes 12! casefans, turned the dip switch all the way up and fired it on.....

Told em that was my home PC rig and they were damn lucky....

They left pissed off, forgetting about their refund for the system, damn mac peeps...WTf is their problem... :laugh:

So no Crimson, I am not a "mac guy"

LOL :) you better watch it though... last time I talked about how slow and aweful the macs were, thier zealots came in a flogged me with words like "refined" "intellectual" and "elegant" that I "just would'nt understand" being a "neanderthal PC user"

True story.. that's thier argument with faced with facts like pirce, performance, ease, software availability etc.

Don't have a RAID controller on your mobo? Too cheap to buy one? Need reliable data mirroring urgently? Never fear! Afrotech has found a way to mirror your data onto a redundant drive the cheap way! First, go into a dos prompt.
