...who hired the majority of math PhDs for several years just to look for market exploits.
The investment banks hire math PhDs to look for arbitrage opportunities and serve the valuable service of price discovery. There is no need to load this activity up with the negative connotation of "exploits."
That's a cute litte saying there boy. I'll have some fries with my cheeseburger please.
That's not a diety, that's an alien civilization of virtualized intelligences.
And therein lies your logical mistake. Lack of evidence is not evidence.
No faith is required. There simply is no evidence for any sort of deity/deities.
Ridiculous. It's true, no one can prove that there are no gods. But we can say that there is as much evidence for gods as there is for the tooth fairy. In fact, there is more for the tooth fairy.
Calling atheism a faith is like calling bald a hair color.
Someone really enjoyed blowing it up. That's value. If you don't get that, you don't get Eve.
"Gamers have no idea what they're doing when they put a machine together right?"
Pretty much. If you are water cooling your desktop then you are a perfect example.
"I can buy my setup 3 times over for the price of the Mac equivalent, right?"
At least you realize you will be buying 3 systems over the life of a Mac to be equivalent.
"..and replace my hardware if it fails."
It will.
"Oh wait, you can't."
Oh wait, I can.
This is simply a case of poor system design -- not doing a thermal analysis or improper air filtering. Very common on hacked together gaming rigs. Get a Mac -- they are built right. Less neon I suppose though...
What was specious or pretentious? Did I miss something?
The problem is that there are more than 437 other people just like you that have there own, different ideas of what I should have to pay $57.10/year for them to do too.
The problem is that you want me to pay for your wondrous little field trip.
Yeah, cause a netbook use case is so close to a MBP's.
