    Damn, $1500 for a keyboard? If you're looking for a cool expensive keyboard, you can score a Logitech g15 for like $99 online. Badass keyboard right there, and you can spend the other 1400 clams on a very nice upgrade for your rig, or.......save it?

  8. Re:So... on AMD Reveals New Mobile Technologies · · Score: 1

    It's funny you should mention that; aside from the obvious Griffin reference. I've found that most of the "tech" people I know are usually big fans of the Family Guy. Conversely, non-technically employed "normies" tend to think Family Guy is dumb, not funny at all, and childish. I feel that this may be due to the fact that a majority of tech oriented people are nerds by default, and thus are better prepared(conditioned may be a better term) to pick up on a lot of the subtle humor that the Family Guy tends to employ. I'd be willing to bet that a lot of the viewers that find the show to be dumb, don't recognize inclusions such as frequent references to Boba Fett and other such welcome treats. The untrained viewer would see that and think to themselves "Wtf, a dumb robot head? Omg, retarded! Not funny!" or "Wtf is this, black and white fake 80's music video?!", completely missing the A-ha video nostalgia and accompanying humor. It's a shame that ignorance can tarnish the opinion many people have of such a great program.
