Go jump off a building and out of the gene pool, moron. Nothing we have today in the consumer computing world would have been possible without the PC.

Take a photo of yourself, your regular pose, holding a bit of paper with #15 written on it.

Well, you proved that you don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about when you said that NT came from OS/2. Thanks for playing, though!

Just shut the fuck up. x86 is the greatest architecture ever and if you don't know it then you are a fucking moron. Why are 90%+ of all personal computers sold today x86?? Yeah, tell me how great G4's are and wow, Amiga sure was fast for 7MHz. But it's all about scale. Those architectures didn't scale, x86 scaled from 2MHz to 2GHz and beyond. That's pretty damn impressive. If you think you can come up with a better design Mr. 8th grader then start your own company and become rich.
