Before anyone links another "Gartner" Study.

2011. Gartner says PC is dead.


 


http://www.fudzilla....-claims-gartner


 


2011 (same year). Record sales in PC's (LOL).

2001. Pc gaming is dying. IGN (GOOD CALL IGN). Oh when did Xbox come out? 2001? Who does IGN cater to? The console crowd? What a big surprise.

2008. Gartner says mouse is dead.


http://gizmodo.com/5...ars-experts-say


 


Another awesome study by Gartner. 2 percent of the population will be married in "virtual worlds". One more year for this gem to come true...

IGN earlier this year. PC gaming has exploded. Boy that had to hurt IGN. No biggie they still downplay the PC in their skyrim mod article and claim they are "basically the same". By the same they mean one version looks like minecraft.

And of course now? PC's are "dying again" because of mediocre PC consoles. Makers perfect sense. Gartner should totally be held up as unbiased and as a modern day Nostradamus (not that he was any better). These consoles ARE PC's. They are just PC's that limit what you can do.

And now you are going to say that coffee is not bad as some studies showed in the past?

 

Oh, wait.

Signatures are stupid.

PC has been "dead" since 2005.

 

Nah man. Gartner has had it dead since Xbox arrived in 2001. They use "magic quadrants" to predict this stuff according to them. I wonder if Harry Potter leads the group.

Don't you just love studies on things you actually use but know no one who ever is asked one question or is surveyed.

 

Bogus BS news click generator stories fill the internet, surprises me people don't just go GraphJam on their site.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

They are so hopelessly bad, one would assume Neville Longbottom was in charge, not Harry Potter.
