Whenever my freinds talk about comps and stuff, I find it really weird. Cause they don't really know how they work.
I don't really either but at least I can build a comp, and I read the hardware section in a A+ book (not to brag)
Quote one guy:
"The IT guy has to move the motherboard in my processor to the one in my other processor"
Quote me to another guy:
"Dude just build your own comp its soo cheaper"
Other guy:
"I know I just started building my motherboard."
Me:
"Dude you need a ton of cardboard and silicon for that"
Other guy:
"Yeah Im gonna build it and put it all together"
Me:
"What kind of CPU will it have? Socket 361 or Slot Q?"
(Yeah I knew he was bullshitting me.
Just putting some pressure on the asshole)
Other guy:
"I havent decided yet, but its gonna have Intel's pentium 4"
Me:
"Oh you should go AMD it's cheaper and faster"
Other guy:
"Whats an AMD?" (quizzical look)
Anyways, do you guys feel weird around our computer-illiterate companions? Share your past, um, experiences.
