Do You Need a New Computer?

[LtSurge659]

But I LOVE Oregon Trail!

[rjmortiz]

How funny! Man, you hit the nail on the head.

[memoivoila]

LOL one of my old machines has a parallel port...

NOT my main desktop obviously because the thing wont run windows xp without lag

[kawaiifreak860]

Whoever deleted the comment claiming Pentium 4 (garbage, anyone with half a brain knows it) better than everything else (including core, which ITT blows the P4 away) thank you.

[KCompRoom2000]

i use an HP DC7800, but i also have a Gateway solo 1450 laptop i would rather use than the HP if it worked

[davko79]

usber!

[davko79]

OMG Chris! You had me LOL'ing so bad when you were doing the "uusssb" and "parallel" dumb-ass impressions! hilarious. I think you could do a whole standup comedy routine on technology novices.

[Aakhil67]

mines about 11

[jakash3]

Better software comes before better hardware.

[0MARATION]

My Laptop is 5 years old :D

new one soon! 

[StonecoldKobe1337]

im still using my dads computer and i want a new gaming computer for my room. and yes i do need a new computer because my dads one is 6 years old!

[kawaiifreak860]

I needn't one and I ended up getting a huge discount on a 450$+ laptop (250$ about well with tax that is.)

So I'm good now. xD

(Never buy a pentium 4, they SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK)

[iTwinswebshow1]

I love this video!!!!! So True Chris!!!!

[keco185]

If it takes longer to boot up than it takes for you to get a shower.

[leennely]

LUGABLES!!!!

[jmurray01]

Organ Trail - Hahaha! That had me in hysterics for a while!

[jmurray01]

All my computers have parallel ports, but the only one I use is for the monitor. And also, I use the PS/2 port for my mouse! However, my printer and keyboard are USB! Hmm... I'm half way there!

[TheDataZoo]

:P Im still using a 2006 dell latitude d610 :D 1.7ghz pentium m and 2gig of ram and 60gig hdd, i actually game on it as well XD And im suing windows 2000 more over XP XD My touchpad is worn out my cd drive doesnt read well anymore and its CLOCKED UP 35,060 hours :D

[TheDataZoo]

@TheDataZoo Using * and i use a parallel port :O

[MD2389]

My first hard drive, was a Quantum 120MB. I was constantly having to remove things, because Windows 95 took up nearly half of the available space!

[IWEBProductions]

I remember my dad had a 20MB harddrive. You know back in the good old MSDOS days. Don't you just miss it?

[faizanjoyia]

my mac mini is 3 months old 

[MrZerox123]

chris lol my laptop is a ASUS g74s series 10 pound 16gb ram power house lol. But it is more up to date then most.

[RAGSTERGURR2122]

hey i am not a geek, i just like programming and technology. I am 13 years old.

[mariofreak91]

My 3yr old Macbook's trackpad was acting up when I'd drag things, but going back to Leopard has taken care of that problem. I'm just waiting for an Asus ultrabook to hit the $5-600 price point.

[Umbra360]

@mariofreak91 5 dollars <3

[smashstuff300]

I'm running 98 2000 and XP.

[kshep92]

Chris looked like he was about to go Samuel Jackson Pulp Fiction crazy when he started on the parallel ports lol

[Khalduknight]

I am 15, yet I own several computers that can run Windows 95. I keep them in good condition just for something such as a reminder of how quickly technology has evolved. It's older than I am.

[flushstuff]

My computer is about 2months old. But I have a few in my house ranging from around 1996 til now

[carrerasrivera]

my dad have one window 95 for work and it work...

[amarokpalanquita]

If you bought your computer when MTV still played music videos... You might need a new computer.

PS: Chris, didn't you feel like Jeff Foxworthy of geek community, just now? Hahaha

[itsthefreemind]

My Gigabyte P35-DS4 Rev. 1.0 (+C2D E6750 +HD4870) mainboard does have a parallel and a RS-232 port. Overall my PCs performance is still decent enough for my needs.

[NETTMEDIA]

I'm running Windows 8 Dev Preview now bitches! \o/

[Sety777]

I like your humour, lol

[pkerry12]

All I will say to pc users is if you too cheap to get a Mac or you don't have a enough money, learn to wait or don't get a computer at all cheap pieces of shit are not worth time and effort

[MonsterMash503]

I'm buying a computer from work. Only one year old and half the price of a new one. Bingo.

[TechBoysUK]

what is a parallel port?

[Theoriginalretardds2]

@TechBoysUK google it



[neil62h1]

i saw a pc one ebay with windows 3.1, think they were selling it in the wrong place it should be antique and collectables lol

[JetsuSeal]

I have the following computer specifications: Windows Ultimate 7 x64 AMD Phenom II X4 Black Edition 3.4 @ 3.6 GHz Asus M4A89GTD Pro OCZ 8GB RAM 1333MHz Western Digital 1TB 7200 RPM HDD XFX AMD Radeon BlackEdition HD 6870 1GB Ultra X4 Modular Power Supply 750W AOC e2243Fw 21.5" Logitech G19 Keyboard Razer Mamba 2012 Ergonomic Elite Mouse Razer Goliath Control Mouse Pad Apevia X-Cruiser2 Mid-Tower And it's 11 months old...It's sooo old.. I need a new pc.. :(

[sirlanceem]

@JetsuSeal if you're being serious, you wont see much of an increase in performance by getting a new pc...

[TekIsland]

I'm embarrassed, I have Windows XP on my main machine :(.

[thereddog223]

I only have 9 gigs of ram and an i7 920 think I need a new comp

[breezym980]

5 years and i hate it

[BuzeOne]

i cant find anywhere on the facebook page on where to make my wishlist!?

[talldude123]

You don't necessarily need a "new" computer. Windows 7 can run smoothly on something from 2002, you can even play HD video on something that old with a video card. I don't need a new computer, my computer is from 2007 and it plays 4K Youtube just fine.

[TalesOfWar]

@talldude123 If you're putting Windows 7 on a PC from 2002 it's like putting a new paint job on an old clunker lol. It may work, but it won't be all that brilliant and doesn't hide the fact bits are falling off lol. I know this because we have a PC from 2003 with Windows 7 in our house, and it works, but it's not all that brilliant. Still, runs better than Vista did on the same rig.

[talldude123]

@TalesOfWar If you're watching Youtube, surfing Facebook, and playing online games, you don't really need a new PC

[j800r]

@talldude123 You're overlooking the fact that Linux can run so well on systems that old that they almost feel like new systems. :p

[talldude123]

@j800r You're absolutely right, Linux can make a P4 feel like a new Pentium Dual core. Also can make a brand new netbook seem like a rocket!

[j800r]

@talldude123 My dad has my old PC (two computers before this one) and it's a P4 2.80ghz designed for XP. A Dell Optiplex. I used to run the latest Ubuntu on it and it ran like a dream and was pretty speedy even connected to a 23" lcd monitor. Basically, if your comp is old and can't run games you may as well run Linux and get a little more fire outta it.

[osakajesse]

@j800r I love Linux! Fedore, Zorin, and Red Hat. But I have 15 OS on my server so I can run what ever I want, but for me, I love Linux.

[JackkTutorials]

If your PC is in a white case, its time to get a new one.

[talldude123]

@JackkTutorials And if it's a Mac, time to ditch that POS and get a PC!

[Saymite]

@JackkTutorials My brother Alianware is White Problem?

[thereddog223]

They still make white cases

[wolfeedarkfang]

If you use a mac that has a OS version less then 10, it's time to upgrade.

If the first thing you see when turning on your PC is "Starting Microsoft DOS", it's time to upgrade.

If your laptop has a full sized hard drive and floppy drive, it's time to upgrade.

If your laptop's screen is grayscale and fades out if viewed from a angle, it's time to upgrade.

I have my supply of them. :D

[PixeIIe]

Though, I no longer live with my parents, there remains a computer stashed in what used to be my room. It's fully compatible with the Zip drive (and there are probably around 5 or so Zip disks to go with it...I think I'm about as old as Chris.

[bonuscardboy]

Dudes ya had me in tears! LoL

[oochit]

parallel port is the old port that had lot of PIN (little metal stick which are parallel)

[vishsmactech]

whats a prarell port???

[talldude123]

@vishsmactech It was used to hook up printers and ZIP drives. Basically what came out before USB. It was also not hot-swappable!

[Marcus8958]

Two years old and touchpad is broke. But its still faster than a $1000 Mac, so I think I'm gonna stick with it.

[Bostream120]

I buy new parts to my computer every 6 months :)

[mzpoon]

Oh....do u know where's the best place that I can trust them to fix my broken laptop??? I dropped it on the floor and it blackout!!! :(( HELP!!!!

[mzpoon]

I love all of ur videos, they're so helpful to me who know nothing about this stuff! :) thanks

[1ruby11]

dude what is a parallel port?

[Neojhun]

I am the point where i want a new computer, but rationaly do not need the computer. Should i dive headfirst and get my second ever Gaming PC.

[macreviews94]

I still use the parallel port on several of my older computers for an external zip drive, since my oldest laptop has nothing but a floppy drive... Then again I'm a computer collecter, so it's not like they are my main machines or anything

[harrybean2006]

Stop moving your face close to the camera...you are scaring me.

[XclusiveAaron]

3:05 biggest LOL!!!

[hjhazzer]

my first HDD had 16GB i still use it for Ubuntu

[Neojhun]

@hjhazzer I still have a working 4GB hdd from my Pent II. That is no where near my first computer.

[hjhazzer]

@Neojhun yes but do u still use that HDD?

[Neojhun]

@hjhazzer Actualy it's still inside the Pentium II which I boot up and muck around on once in a while. The HDD has XP Legacy on it. I still can surf the net on it.

[heartSLB]

You know you need a new computer when Apple updates their lines with revolutionary features

[tmar23]

I'm on the 478 as we speak and I could pull the p3 out of the closet, it still works. As far as parallel ports go they still include them on modern motherboards. I was looking at mirco ATX 1155 boards the other day on newegg and one caught my eye with it.

[fluffboyjr12]

My dad still uses 2000 x)

[NETTMEDIA]

@fluffboyjr12 I still have windows Me! \o/

[Federico84]

@NETTMEDIA Windows Crap Edition

[JSantana319]

Computers are so cheap now that it's not even worth fixing them in case it gives you problems after a year of having them. Some people keep their computer for more than 3 years and that's something that I wouldn't do because technology is growing extremely fast.

[itsageoffrushthing]

HAHA, I've kept my Windows 95 CD-ROM just for the lolz! Actually, I'm surprised it wasn't on a floppy disk... LOL... I still do have some of those around somewhere though! Ah, those were the days - having to install one floppy disk at a time and waiting hours for one simple bit of software to load from them all.

[TalesOfWar]

@itsageoffrushthing Aye, those days sucked lol. Thankfully we've progressed! I remember when I could back up everything on my PC with a stack of floppy discs haha, then I moved to CD's, then to DVD's, now I have several 2TB hard drives haha. How things change.

[CrewRite]

@itsageoffrushthing

time to update your os to a linux. :P

[DeltaPhi79]

(Here's a legit one) You know you need a new computer when your processor only has L2 cache and it wasn't a low end computer.

[lukebob1]

Hey! Who left a lung here?!

[vendettabf]

wow.. "if you need a new laptop and dont have the SPARE CHANGE..." how much money do you make wow.. xD



[60sfreak97]

Omg, good old oregon trail. :) Played that on an apple ][ a couple weeks ago.

[Mr360iModz]

What the hell is a parallel port

[123haku123]

[AdrianGordon1231]

@PoKerFaceN1 And what would be stopping u from doing that with ur PC? If u already have your heart set on a mac mini then get one. No use in pretending that ur open to other options.

[PoKerFaceN1]

@AdrianGordon1231 i hav had the old pcs before i dont know how the new ones are and i wanted to know if anyone has the mac mini or tried it would give me some advice to buy it or not .thats why .

[lmull3]

i dunno, i still like parallel port. very useful for jtagging a router. but that's not to say having a dedicated older machine around isn't a good thing either.

[ubaksh11]

If you are still running anything below IE6, because firefox nor Chrome can be installed onto it!

[techbeast34]

People, stop fantaszizing on what your laptops are, and stop stating your age. NO ONE CARES

[PhysicsTowerTeam]

I have a computer with a parallel port for a Media Server :P

[zeosrule]

My new gigabyte mobo has a parallel port...

[WedshankProductions]

I don't even know what a parallel port is!

[ChiefLeftenant]

@WedshankProductions Goes to show you do not know the love of legacy.

[ArmageddonZone]

@WedshankProductions It's not time yet lol

[OwtDaftUK]

@WedshankProductions It's was for printers i think and other stuff, my printer is usb.

[AdrianGordon1231]

@PoKerFaceN1 u realize that the mav mini also does not come with a monitor right?

[PoKerFaceN1]

@AdrianGordon1231 yes . but i hav seen ppl connecting it to their LCD TV , till u get a proper one right ?

[Kragorin]

Thanks for the question Chris. I just bought my new PC approx. 3 month ago and it's working fine. Before I purchased it I used a P3 compatible motherboard with an Intel Celeron processor running at 1300 MHz. I was good but I used it up. Only my low budget can tell why had I to stick with it this long (since 2004). But on the other hand I still own multiple computers running XP, and one Pentium 1 running Win98.

[thedarkone2134]

I need a new laptop but when you're poor you make do.

[PFCVoshell]

these are rather lame he's describing computers that like use vacuum tubes and punch cards.

[f3rnay]

whats times are the live videos?



[gladier1]

my 1 year old alienware m15x weighs 15lbs

[Kynamitem0]

I can be ready all I want, when I don't have money for a new one. -.-'

[NCC74913]

Are the relatives you insulted your parents?

[MIApwnage]

I read the terms and conditions.. It says you have to pay taxes for the "prize" you win. So you win a new laptop but you still have to pay.. Correct me if I'm wrong but if that's the case, I'm not for it... If I win, I want to WIN. Not win and have to pay for the item that I won..

[NCC74913]

My first hard drive on the first mac that i bought was 4GB. Original iMac. My families first however was a Macintosh Plus. NO HARD DRIVE build in. Had an external though. Don't know the size but was probably 20Mb which is what most others where at the time. This was not an Apple drive thought it was called Jasmine and my brother accidentally password protected it and locked every body out.  He did not remember the pass word for the files on the drive. Retarded idiot!

[allthatstuff35]

i'm 15 and my computer is a few months old

[sporkafife]

My old laptop's fan was faulty. This meant I had to prop it up on either side with DVD's (the only time I use physical media, trololol) and constantly cool it down with a desktop fan. Also there was some catastrophic error with Windows 7, so the computer was only able to run off a 20GB Ubuntu partition that I added just as an experiment. Also the WiFi adapter didn't work and the battery lasted 20 minutes.

^^^ I put up with all of that for 6 months, but I then decided it was time to move on.

[sporkafife]

@sporkafife Also the HDD would make an annoying buzzing noise, which soon stopped after I punched the area ;)

[PoKerFaceN1]

@sporkafife i almost got some problem with my windows laptop its over heated now can run heavy stuff on it , i have cooling underneath it . i need a desktop i think.

[V3RM1LI0N]

You know you need a need computer when a phone has better specs :(

[StealthWar95]

Laughed so hard at your impression of people.

[PoKerFaceN1]

i have been thinking to buy a new Mac Mini is it worth it ? i either want a Mac mini or windows pc witch one shell i buy ? i have got a macbook air already and an old windows laptop i use to download crap . help plz thank u . ;)

[MXR789]

@PoKerFaceN1 I would go with the mac mini because you can always dual boot windows (or linux). It also has a dual core i5/i7

[PoKerFaceN1]

@MXR789 yes a i5 2 gb ram tho i could hav 8 gb ram later if i need it . but with the price you could get twice faster with windows pc . i love mac tho got a macbook air it was my first mac .

[sims3loser]

@PoKerFaceN1 Windows Pc.....Because why dual boot when you can just have windows...

[PoKerFaceN1]

@sims3loser thank u but am just abit sick on windows cos with all anti virus issues and slow running pcs .
