I can't believe the comments of all these stupid brainwashed Americans!

After seeing the whole program I was curious to read from people whose eyes had been opened. How naive of me!!

Just as religious people will not be persuaded by hard facts and science, brainwashed-to-consume people will not be convinced by reason.

It'll take generations to turn back the tide.

Honestly, this makes me cry!

[EachSecret]

Its far easier to fool someone, then to convine them they have been fooled.

[jaaaaakeb]

they have to change cpu sockets because they need to change pin configurations on the baseplate

btw, even if they dont use BGA you still have to change your mobo if you want a new cpu

Being a computer hardware hobbyist that part about the computer gave me a chuckle. It's true that every few years they change the socket interface for the CPU. But it's still sensible to learn to upgrade just parts of your computer. And Intel, lately, is trying to plan to literally attach/solder the CPU to the circuit board... in an effort to get hobbyist to chuck their entire computer into the trash.
