Yep, I have no respect for it on a computer. I understand on a keyboardless cell phone, but a computer? I find it even more hilarious when students here at my college accidentally put it in their papers/reports. Quite hilarious and sad.
 


I hope text messaging falls off the face of the earth.
1) It's disgusting how much the cellphone companies make off of it, none of which I get :ange:
2) Instead of spending the time and delays of sending receiving/opening/closing your phone and text messages open your cellphone call the damn person and have a full conversation from beginning to end. Tada you just saved yourself a little time and money. But sadly this will make the kids in schools trying to talk to their friends in class a little to obvious and disruptive...
3)Text messaging doesn't remove the problem on how a slow cpu bottlenecks a 9600GT.
 
I had an AMD 6000+ X2 and scored 11,000. After changing my setup to the Q6600 with the same video card (EVGA 8800 GTX ANS3) I scored 13,000.

AMD X2 chips arent "junk". The motherboard on the otherhand definitely is.

I didnt have time to read all 6 pages so I hope that you got a new motherboard if you didnt get things squared up with your old one.
 


Thats why when I was offered free minutes or txts on my contract I went for free minutes. Most of my friends do the opposite. When they send me texts I just phone back and in 1 minute 3-4 texts worth is said and dealt with instead of taking 20 minutes. Idiots!
