Tripod Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Antagon, you own. My computer also does what I need it to do. It's a bit old, and outdated (not too much though). Something like uhh a generic GeForce4 video card, some ###### PSU, 512 RAM, motherboard sound, AMD 1.2ghz processor. I rarely play games as now adays it seems like they sacrafice good game play for more special affects. Link to post Share on other sites
squarepusher Posted October 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 English please next time.But my enitre point is, my system can be completely moved, in less then 2 minutes. Plus, I could pwn in any game you can, with out a single cord Advantages of a laptop plus, wtf is a PSU? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Speak english?

Spike Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 A chap I got into airsoft once tried to tell me how good his PC was, he shut up when I pointed to my G36 and then pointed at him. My PC, it won't play many of the latest games at anywhere near decent speed with any of the fancy trickery (though I forget what the most recent game I have actually played is). Frankly I don't see the point in spending any money on it until it stops working.Because I know my pc may be better than some people's but, frankly, I don't give a damn. Others have girlfriends, I admit I don't yet, does that make me a lesser person? Therefore if I have a semi decent PC and others don't that doesn't make them lesser people. Sorry to go on but what I thought seemed like a bit of a joke appears to be getting a bit out of hand. Link to post Share on other sites
squarepusher Posted October 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Sorry to go on but what I thought seemed like a bit of a joke appears to be getting a bit out of hand. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's not getting out of hand at all. It's serving its purpose quite well - it's a forum where brave PCs around the UK come and battle each other in hexidecimal code. Rock! Like you said, I have a girlfriend as well - but a 'fight your girlfriends' thread doesn't seem in order - I'd draw the line there, but until that point, I'd say it's closer to j0x than fl4m3s. So to sp33k. Implying that this thread was a way for me to show that some are "lesser people" is really the most offensive thing that's been said. Just a bit melodramatic imo. They're just computers. sp* Link to post Share on other sites

If you and sledge do have a problem, sort it out by PM. Penis Substitute Unit? Seriously dude, no-one cares how much your PC "pwns". Meh. Mouthy rich kids need to pipe down in my humble opinion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Don't flame with lame PSU jokes, and then offer it as your humble opinion.

The purpose of this thread was for you to boast about your new computer which Daddy bought for you. Maybe I was a little harsh, but when I was sixteen I worked a crappy job for the best part of two years to afford my first PC, and had someone in the "real world" come along and made the boasts you have I'd have said much the same thing.

squarepusher Posted October 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Someone lock the thread before Rikkster tells us about his childhood spent cleaning chimneys. ??? So you work for money.. big deal, so does everyone, and so will I. The purpose of the thread WAS to show off my new pc. I'm proud of it. What is that, a crime? So my Dad bought it for me... it's actually his PC and I'm still contributing money towards it AND some of my Christmas/Birthday money so maybe you should stop acting like the third world disaster child you seem to think you are.

Sledge Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Ok, I'll admit it. I'm ashamed to say I don't know my PC's specs. R22 and Femme-Fatale built it for me last Christmas. You'll have to ask them what it's got. All I know is it's pretty damn cool and has Sound Forge, which I love! Oh, and if we're talking sad childhood/PC related stuff: until I got my funky one from R22 and Femme, my PC was a 386 ! Now THAT'S a true tale of child abuse ! Link to post Share on other sites
squarepusher Posted October 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Sound Forge is absolute quality, Rizzo gave it to me along with Photoshop, which I lost during my format *duh* Link to post Share on other sites
