-as soon as you got yours, a better model comes to the market
-besides god no-one understands it's inner logic
-even your smallest, most tinyest mistakes are saved in the memory instantly, and permanently
-the language the comps use to discuss between one another is totally incomprehensible to others
- the message "Bad command or file name" is just as informative as "if you don't know why i'm angry to you, i'm not going to tell you!"
-as soon as you get to know your comp better, you notice half your salary is spent in various additional equipment
PS. i'm not a chauvinist
PPS really i'm not

chau·vin·ism
1. Militant devotion to and glorification of one's country; fanatical patriotism.
2. Prejudiced belief in the superiority of one's own gender, group, or kind.
The context in which Locke is referring to the word pertains to a man who believes women are inferior.

I think GameBanshee is going to hell in a handbasket. Yesterday Buck spammed not one, but
two, threads and now spammable threads are being hijacked for serious discussion . . .
Sheesh, what's next? Is Weasel going to return control of our computers to us?

I think that's just too extreme! Buck spamming and and spam threads turing into *gasp*serious discussions is tolerable. But having my own control of my comp is just too much for me!

I guess fable is correct about the "3500 Weasels frisking the Internet"

Umm... is Weasel Canadian? Or maybe I should just blame Aegis
No, I believe Weasel is from Alabama, or some other tropical location.
