if Intel made cars, their cars would be similar to school busses. They would have a v20-30 cylinder engine, big huge mud tires, and all these crazy fins and spoilers on it. Their engine would put out about 1500-2000 HP, but the car(bus) would still be slower than a porsche (AMD)
First of all I want to start of by saying that I have been diagnosed as ADHD, and that I take adderall. Okay for one thing, not only am I ADHD, but I am VERY ADHD. On those symptom lists, i have every single one of those symptoms. My mother told me this year that when i was diagnosed, they tested my distractability rate, and i am 95% distractable. So now that you know i'm not just some person that doesn't know what the hell i'm talking about. And another thing, You will probably notice that my point changes quite frequently in this post, but as i jokingly say "dont mind me, i'm add"
I am 20 years old, and I just graduated high-school. Yes i was two years behind, i failed 7th grade because i just didn't care, and i got heldback in the 5th grade. I have thought a lot the past year about ADHD and stuff and what all it really means and what really sets me apart from the "normal" people in this world. In conclusion I think that ADD is not a disability of any sort. if you think it's a disability, take a look at this . All I really think it is, is that a ADD/ADHD mind is a lot faster than the "normal" mind. I know that this sounds unbelievable to people without ADD/ADHD, but to those that "suffer" from the disorder, I'm sure that you will agree with me.
Another thing, lighten up, geeze people. I mean, damn. Theres no need to get all pissed because people laugh at you. I mean damn, you wouldn't believe how much I laugh at myself. I mean every single day i'm like "oh my, i am so ADHD" and then i just bust out laughing. Then when i slow down and almost stop laughing... I'm like "Oh my, i was just laughing at how ADHD i am" and i'll bust out laughing again. Believe me when i say it is a endless cycle. Now if I laugh at myself that much, then I know that others are likely to laugh at me.
As far as coping with ADD/ADHD... The other day when I was in english class and the teacher was rambling on about some crap that i didn't even care about, I figured out how I could make a desk that would surround me. Where I would sit in the middle of this giant cheerio and surround myself with stuff that i'm working on. I even figured out how i would make a giant compass for the plasma cutter. But anyways, I think that if you surround yourself entirely with what you are working on. You wont be distracted as much.
geez, don't we have any sense left in this world? this sounds like a REALLY bad idea. scientists cannot play the role of God. this is absolutely crazy if you ask me!!!!!!

you dumbass, if you only knew what the hell you were talking about. Maybe you should do some research on the "disorder" before you shoot it down.

they should call it "little M" but wait a minute, then Microsoft would claim that people would mistake the M as being somepart of microsoft. :-/
