Insta-Geek Poll

Processor style

[AwakeAtLast]

1. My husband is actually the geek

He swears by AMD Athlon.

[DS1]

3. As do I

I'm running an Athlon at 1.4, the Pentiums I use at work run at 2.8, and they're half the speed of my Athlon, if not slower, at Photoshop, and they hang like crazy when printing. I hate them.

4. Are you sure you're not my husband?

LOL! He says the very same thing, only he calls it "bottlenecking".

I have found a computer soul-mate for him! :)

2. I see the Dark Side has no effect on this crowd

Bring me my shuttle..

[DS1]

6. Smart girl

I think I like you ;-)

[GirlinContempt]

11. Why why

:blush: thank you

I stopped building computers with intel long ago

I think i like you too.... hardware rawr

[DS1]

13. Yeah

The last time I was asked to upgrade a PC it turns out that the proc didn't like winXP. so I had to flash this dude's BIOS while he was freakin out. I got his shit working, sall good

[GirlinContempt]

16. Uh oh

we might have to become bitter enemies.
XP is the devil.

[DS1]

20. Hey now, I was asked

because the guy knew I knew my stuff. He'd have been dubly-fucked ( yes, that's a Spinal Tap referenece ) if he'd done it alone.

[Deja Q]

7. AMD here. Ditched (un)intel(ligent) a looooooooooooong time ago.

Same galaxy, though.

[LeftyMom]

8. AMD

I considered nothing else when I ordered LeftyDad's new box. It runs rings around my computer, which is Intel based (because I didn't buy it.)

[Omphaloskepsis]

9. PowerPC

My Linux box has a AMD chip in it though. I don't like Intel.

[GirlinContempt]

12. You!

Good choice

[ghostsofgiants]

10. I'm definitely not feeling the love here, haha

P4 3.0GHz

[GirlinContempt]

17. Poor baby

*pat pat*

[Bouncy Ball]

14. What does all this mean?

:crazy:

[AntiCoup2K4]

15. Definitely AMD

Though I don't have a 64 yet.

[qnr]

18. More retro-geek. AMD, but also M680x0 and MOS6502 variants n/t

[FuzzySlippers]

19. I think I got the Intel thingie.

There was a sticker on my laptop that said so.:shrug:

[Seabiscuit]

21. I don't know if this poll is asking what we have or what we think is the

best processor.

Not being a geek, I wouldn't know how to vote on the latter.

So, having a Pentium III and wishing it was at least a Pentium IV(simply because it sounds newer, and presumably better in *some* incomprehensible - to me - way) I voted for Pentium IV.

[Hugin]

22. I don't have a processor...

I personally edit each pixel on my screen each
refresh... Sure, it keeps me busy, but, I'm a perfectionist.

I also type out each network data packet.

(No... I've got a Mips 4500.)

GEEK!
