YES, me and my roomate WERE bored, so hush!
I didn't do anything illegal, I was just calling for information

I called Dell :

I said &quot;I was reading the paper, and was wondering if you carried these new things, the DDR systems by Athlon?

&quot;No, we do not carry the athlon and we don't plan to... you should get a pentium&quot;

&quot;But I've heard these Pentiums stink&quot;

&quot;Pentium's stink? who told you that?&quot;

&quot;Tomshardware, anandtech, firingsquad and these other sites my friends showed me&quot;

&quot;Tomshardware told you that? he always sides with AMD you should get a pentium, do a little research, i wouldnt want you to get a computer that stinks&quot;

&quot;Oh, ok, I'll try to find a site that says it doesn't stink, thanks&quot;

Hah. Sales.

Most of the people in tech support at my location are AMD fans, but of course on the phones the P4 will be the best thing since sliced bread. (Although once someone straight out asked me, &quot;What's your opinion on the best processor, Athlon or P3?&quot;, and I then told him the Athlon was my personal preference. That's rather risky though.)

Yes, from my understanding, sales does work on comission (that's the only way I can explain a GHz 4100 with a 80GB HD, SB Live!, ADA885 speakers, and 64MB of RAM).
