Apparently, when AGP was more common many users managed to install PCIe cards into AGP slots.

Being weak, flabby computer types on average we tend to forget just how STRONG some users can be. We sometimes tend to underestimate their familiarity with carpentry tools and willingness to use them.

Okay. So in this story, were you the 'Hoss' or the 'Little Joe'? What did 'Pa' do once he found out what you two were up to?

The fail is strong with this one.

Seriously, someone needs to smother the guy in that video to death. I do NOT want him contaminating the air that I might breathe.

Om my god, I'm not neat but look at that nasty fuckers kitchen. Jesus H Christ, private Pyle, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT ?!?! IS THAT A COCHROACHE PRIVATE PYLE !!

Maybe he's taking a laptop, smearing this on the chassis (some people call the part of the computer with the internals "the CPU", whereas you or I would call it the tower, the case, the computer, etc.), and expecting that to reduce the overall temps of the system? It seems pretty messy, but I can't imagine how he's doing this otherwise.

Other than that, maybe he has some kind of SFF portable with no heatsink (Atom?) that he smears this stuff on, uses for a while with no heatsink, and then replaces when it overheats? I don't know... it just doesn't make any sense.

Perhaps he's been using the syringe to fill his PB&J sammiches too, and that explains the confusing post.

He's definitely talking about a laptop:
Its good at a library when you are confined in small places and its good if you have to keep the computer on your lap for several hours such as on an airplane or something like that.
The only kind of computer you'd use on an airplane is a laptop (nettop, whatevertop).

He also knows that CPU and computer are not the same thing:
It cools off the computer CPU but not for very long.

Anyway I would be really surprised if it wasn't just a joke. Smearing AS all over your laptop would result in stains on the laptop shell, not to mention your clothes and hands and everything you touch...
