So this lady in the office is looking for a P&S digicam and looking to spend $150 and I was just giving her some knowledge when this other clown walks over and says "You're wasting your time looking at those cameras because anything less than 6 megapixels is a waste." I just ignored him and walked away. There's no point arguing with idiots.

Many years ago as a teenager working at an electronics store I realized how pointless it was to try and argue with uninformed idiots. It is a total waste of my time. If someone asks my opinion, I'll give it to them...I'm not going to argue with someone cause they are an idiot/ignorant.

It's true, you know. Quantity over quality. :disgust:

Go spit in his eye.
Something I learned long ago is that most people will be perfectly happy with their electronics choices even if they made the "wrong" choice.
If people ask for my input I'll give it to them (tailored to how much I think they want), the only people who's choice I really get involved in are family. I'm recognized as the family expert on all things that plug in, & they will listen to me. Outside of my family I keep my mouth shut.

Yep. Its part of the "everyone wants to have the best" culture we have. Nevermind the fact most people would be content with way less. The trouble is, most people are usually to ignorant about the things they buy to know what the best actually is. So when marketing offers them an oversimplified way to determine that they have the best, and easily brag about it they glom onto it without question.
Of course, anyone with deductive reasoning abilities knows marketing exists to lie to you and therefore there statements are irrelevant.

People are also more happy when they spend slightly more for something than they should have. They somehow believe that when they pay more money they're always getting better quality. This only applies about 20-30% of the time. Usually it's not a function of manufacturers, but market demand or retailers keystoning everything in their stores.

I still use a 1.3. Looks fine for the type of pictures I take.
