EVERYONE WITH A PCWORLD PC REPLY IN HERE PLZ

[kryt]

Stu, since you constantly ignore me on IRC, seems I might have to try and grab your attention on here.
You can not grasp the concept of being wrong. I have proven you wrong on many occasions.
For instance... you still can not believe I can get a windows installation running from scratch in 5 minutes flat.
I'm sure the more knowledgable people here will tell you it's quite easy with a straight HD image on CD. Norton ghost is a * very * useful util. Based on the same idea as those shitty recovery CD's you tend to get with PC's from PCWorld and the like.
Also.. about the 5 years old stuff. Obviously a person, at 5, is not exactly too aware of what goes on in a computer. Especially PC's that age. I had a thing for taking things apart from a very, very young age, and my Atari 800xl was soon amongst them. Getting frustrated that the colour had dissapeared, I managed to take off the top, and fiddled with a couple of screwdriver-variometers inside.. which fixed it.. since then I did get cocky, and learnt from then on.
People can develop a certain genius from as young as 2 years old. When I was 5 I was building the lego sets meant for 12 year olds. By the time I was 10 I had a complete grasp of gearings and pneumatics and was making things most average people couldn't do at 30 years old.
It is NOT impossible to acheive seemingly impossible stuff at a young age. You should learn this, realisation is something you still haven't quite gotten the grasp of.

Rant over.

fair enough.

Expect a sunny D bottle full of piss and a pringle tube full of turd on your doorstep soon...

Point is, what's to say I'm not bullshitting... what's to say I am.. difference is, you can not accept being wrong. Face it.

I've only had PC's for 3 yrs but I know more than any of you so \/

Yea stu, he did say we could do all that shit ,which is what pissed me off
when you think of all the poor newbies going to buy a pc first time ,they must get fobbed off with every thing because the salesmen obviosly take the public to be gullible and comp illiterate(one of them gotta be spelt wrong at least=)
i mean my m8 is a few years younger and he got a 1k loan from bank ,and to pay for insurance he had to use his birds credit card,
and eeek also they want you not inside for a year so they get a years worth of installation fees,
fook sake gts2 is costly enuff without having to spend 40 odd quid to get it installed =)

Because 80% of the population are nontechnical.

Just wanted to add...I bought a Cely400 from PCWorld just over 1 year ago and no problems
I also got the insurance thing BUT I got the 5 year on-site deal for £50...Why? Because as soon as "the geek"(to qoute) came and asked if he could help, the first question I asked him was "Can you tell me what speed the AGP port on this PC is?" And I swear I heard his arse hit the floor...
After a bit of a chat involving FSBs',CPU core temperature and a myriad of other technical terms...(Most too bland even to publish here) I left the shop with £1200 worth of goods for £680...And the (quick Harry Enfield impression)"Young Man!" even threw in a copy of FS98 LOL
So you see a little knowledge can truly be a useful thing...
Never pay what they want you to pay...Pay what you want to pay!
BTW it's now an 800Mhz PIII 160Mb Ram Hollywood+ etc AND it is STILL covered for another 4 years... I checked
