    Gilbert got a reaction from WhitetailAni in Experiences with non-techies   
    I have a pretty good one.
     
    So i was eating lunch and had my laptop out, this dude pulls out his laptop.
     
    Him: Yo i got a better laptop than you
    Me: Who cares, this is good enough for school work.
    Him: Your laptop is so slow, I have the fastest thing around. it boots in 10 seconds.
    Me: So? There are PCs out there that can boot in 3 seconds.
    Him: Yea Military computers.
    Me: No, Military computers don't turn off they're servers they need to stay on. Besides there are consumer PCs that can run/process things faster than the servers they use.
    Him: No there isn't
    Me: My computer is faster than most of the 10 year old hardware that they use.
    Him: No it's not
     
    And then i tried to explain to him how PCs worked and he started getting mad about my trying to explain to him. (He's a know it all person who's a total jerk hole)

    I have another pretty good one.
     
    I was talking to my friend about details on modern games (i.e. bf4 cod and the like) and told him eventually that PCs make them look the best. And he started to show an interest in getting a gaming PC so i made him a parts list and the next day he comes to me and just say "you know what i'll just buy an Xbox one" (Keep in mind this was before the price drop and the Xbone was 600 dollars.)

    What if you could cram a 960 or something better in there? Make a second PC in another NES box or a Xbone with power far better than that of the consoles.

    This is a retarded idea... Spend that money on a proper fucking computer and not on something like this.

    I thought at first the white box might not look great, But it matches really well and isn't obnoxious, which is nice.

    Yea i'm following that other thread where you made it for your wife. I still think it looks better without a side panel window. It just makes it flow better without the window.

    Exactly, Which was why I was agonized when i heard my parents say they bought Comcast internet. They forgot about the Data caps and when i explained why i was agonized, they were pissed off that they forgot about it.

    So i was talking to my friend about computer parts and how they were superior to Xbone and PS4, and he goes "Don't you need like millions of dollars to run these games?" And i said no of course, a few minutes later i then mention Water cooling, then he says "Limme go grab a water hose and let's water cool the Xbone, it's the same thing right??" (Facepalm ensues. my hand and my face had a good reunion.)
