Bob is sitting in a pitch black, when Fred arrives. Curious as to why Bob is sitting in the dark, Fred asks why the lights arn't on. Bob says the lights are on, Fred has a look at the light switch and finds that this is in fact true. Noticing that the TV is on Fred knows there hasn't been a power cut and so suggests that maybe the light bulb has blown. Bob says 'the bulb is made by Intel, it cannot blow' the Fred suggests again, this time a bit more strongly that the bulb could have blown but the person refuses to hear it each time stating the bulb was made by intel and therefore cannot blow. The Fred later leaves, leaving Bob in darkness.
Bob is installing a bulb made by Intel, he drops it and is shocked that it broke but also he is upset because he can't afford a new one. Fred is installing a AMD bulb and he also drops it and it breaks. He isn't quite as suprised when it breaks but at least he knows he'll have an easier time affording a replacement.
Fred using an AMD bulb has had to fit a fan near his bulb to keep his bulb cool because otherwise it gets too hot. Bob seeing this laughs and decides to prove how cool his bulb is by touching it. He burns his finger.
Fred decides his AMD bulb isn't quite bright enough so he fiddles with it and it gets a lot brighter and he is able to keep it for longer then he would have otherwise. Later on he needs things even brighter still so he goes and buys a new bulb, which fits perfectly. Bob using the Intel lightbulb who also needs more light decides to try fiddling with his bulb to get it brighter as well, but it dosn't get that much brighter so he has to go and buy a new bulb, he gets the bulb home but finds his new bulb won't fit in his old socket.
Bob buys a new 100w Intel bulb, a fred goes and buys a 50w AMD bulb and they find that both bulbs are as bright but the 50w bulb was cheaper. Although Bob who bought the Intel bulbs insists his is better because it's 100w and is made by Intel.
Sorry I was bored and no doubt some bright chappy will find a way to turn this round on me but /me shrugs I'm not biased (rather like the idea of DDR333 on a P4 in fact) I just get annoyed by the meltdowns of this world.
Your nice new PC might be faster then my 286, but my 286 makes a better door stop
