AMD is for POOR people

This is my favorite line of the week. I've seen 2 people use this argument. ROFL

I've never owned an amd uP in my life. I've been close a couple of times, but always found a good solid Intel setup. But I have read numerous posts of people who have managed to fry their amd uP during installation, probably due to an incorrectly seated heatsink. A lot of DIY's (mostly poor people on a budget) choose amd due to low price, but actually Intel uP is the perfect DIY. It wont let you down, ever.

BTW, what is a "uP"? I wondered that when I first saw it.

True, true, as always was, amd is for poor, like me, Intel is for average and above, like me too, hehe...

Sorry, I realized that. I meant I was wondering where he got that from. I've never seen "uP" used to signify a CPU.

it's common among engineers and scientists to use the greek letter mu as an abreviation for micro, unfortunately mu is not part of the ASCII set. Some people substitute a small u.

 

[FatBurger]

Right, the µ sign. Thanks, that makes sense.

Oh phew.. I looked at this post to call you an idiot but I'm glad you don't seriously think that AMD is for poor people.
Whoever the people are that say that are both ignorant and need higher taxes (to appreciate the great things in life that come cheaply). Eh, once AMD gains enough market they will also take advantage of us like intel has for years.

"dude your getting a dell", is that kid trying to say he wants to stick his 'dell' in you?

""Eh, once AMD gains enough market they will also take advantage of us like intel has for years.
""

Little thought about it: when AT&T lost their monopoly and MCI and Sprint gained more and more market share, phone rates went way, way, way down from all sides. So, I think this will be the same, but who knows, right? (not me at least, hehe)

..this is very useful and helpful place for information...

Pfft. DIYs are not necessarily poor, just smarter. We don't take the corporate bullshit word for word, we prefer hard facts. We love getting our hands dirty and the pleasure of saying “I made this.” We can do just as good at building a product as corporate America, and in many cases we can do better. Anarchists, Libertarians, and punks all have the same views toward government, we can govern ourselves better. That is why I believe most of the people in this forum are libertarian at heart, even if they don’t know it yet.

[mbetea]

yes-
but most ignorant people see "getting our hands dirty" as white trash, thus we're poor. no offense towards ignorant people and i am white trash so i can say anything i want about them :tongue:

[insert philosophical statement here]

 

[Booky]

Im ignorant and white trash, so whats to do next? I know lets build a rich man a poor mans system and watch him pee his pants in amazment

Crap, all the good ones are already taken.

 

[ksoth]

I know a rich guy who builds his own AMD systems...

"Trying is the first step towards failure."

 

[MeTaLrOcKeR]

I know quite a few rich people who build AMD's......

I also know a FFM who build AMD systems and call them the Poor Mans Pentium.....

I know a stubborn/ignorant guy who refusea to build AMD systems JUST BECAUSE it's not INTEL....not only that, this same guy said to me "If it doesnt say Intel OR Asus on it, I don't trust ti and will never buy it, I wont even touch them with someone elses dick" That's quoted from the guy who will eb left nameless........talk about being stubborn eh? LoL

How do you figure that ??!??

Does that mean your a <i>blithering moron</i> becasue you baught the more expensive, much inferior Pentium 4 Willy system ? Like common man, grow up....

Poor people buy Athlons, stupid ones buy Celeron.

Hmmm... I'm writing this on a C433...DOH!

Heh...I wouldn't say I'm rich at the moment, but I didn't put my Athlon with a 10-drive SCSI RAID50 by being poor.

<i>If a server crashes in a server farm and no one pings it, does it still cost four figures to fix?

 

[Guest]

along that line of logic.... if you buy a ford/honda/chevy you are a poor person??


besides what kind of insult is "AMD is for poor people"... Its a better, faster, more stable chip with superior architecture and real world pricing. Not the result of a bloated monopolizer....
