why would I be offended? Vista was a crucial moment in microsoft's history. It confirmed that Microsoft has a Rubbish/Rubbush/rubbish/rubbish schedule, like a, um...

Terrible company? I think that's what you're looking for.

 

Oh and by the way, fixed that for you.

I hated using Vista :P

Everyone hated using Vista. Anyone who says otherwise is a witch and must be burned, after of course being weighed against a duck.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It's a comedy film set in the dark ages where they burn someone as a witch after determining the best way to see if she's made of wood, because witches burn, so they are made of wood, and wood floats, and so do ducks, so if she weighs the same as a duck she's made of wood, and therefore, a witch. So...

A duck.

I got the reference, don't worry. 

 

Also it may not be a product but don't you hate it when companies take a market standard and rebrand it with a marketing BS name?

Things like Retina, Accutype, Ultrapixel, and so on...  :huh:

I've built 3 PC's, but none for myself... In fact, I'm using an iMac that my dad bought for me as my desktop. Awkward...

Please don't say "SSD drive." By doing so, you are literally saying "Solid State Drive Drive" and causing my brain cells to commit suicide. The same applies to HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express).

I'll be honest, as much as I like Alienware's products, the name and branding is honestly kinda dumb.

Great products, but Alienware is such a tacky name branding.

Razer and their naming schemes. Different product types/ generations under one name.

 

And vista was good if you had the machine to run it :( most people just didnt want to throw away their P4 /512mb Dells

Surface. Ok, yes a DESK called surface makes sense, but seriously, How do you get that from a tablet? It's not a surface you can put things on.

Normandy - Intel Core i5 3470, 8 GB Corsair Vengenace LP, EVGA GTX 960 SSC, Gigabyte GA-Z77M-D3H-MVP, WD Blue 1 TB, Seagate 320 GB (steam), Seagate 320 GB (experimental, second OS, etc), Windows 8.1 + Ubuntu 14.10

Ripjaws X? Seriously...

 

Rapoo... the name just sounds like rat poo

 

Xbox One, after the 360?

The worst name in the history of naming things though, has got to be the "Next-gen consoles"

"Yeah, I actually couldn't underclock my five-year-old graphics card to be as slow as a next-gen console. PCGamingMasterrace problems."

Phantek's  "enthoo" moniker, I never quite liked that.
