Please stop helping the media companies to spread misinformation. Downloaders are not pirates. "Pirates" are defined as people who make and sell copies of copyrighted works commercially, for a profit. Equating your typical downloader with "pirates" is a gross injustice.

You stole my thunder and I have no mod points today.
I have already retired my first 64 bit dual core laptop since it's almost five years old and has already had both the hard drive and motherboard replaced.

And now I have a bad 80's tune stuck in my head: "... this is what it sounds like, when tolls cry...."

All the power of an iPad without the touch screen... Perhaps I should start complaining about how badly Win 7 and Ubuntu 11.04 run on my 386?
I think Al Gore founded reddit.
No, but he did chair the committee that authorized funding for the creation of what became the internet which did ultimately lead to the creation of Reddit, so he must bear some of the blame.
So it's a surefire way to find lots of show tunes and gay porn.
You make that sound like a bad thing.
Subs - Even boomers have quite a few uses other than flinging nukes.
I should hope so, they've been around for decades, cost billions and have never actually fired a missile in anger.

"I keep a Pentium Pro CPU on my desk underneath my monitor because it reminds me of simpler times."
You kids and your new shit. Nothing simple about a 32-bit CISC chip. When I was a kid we had 8-bit CPUs and liked it!
I had a 24 bit mainframe with 128Kwords of memory. And loved it.
24 bit? Luxury! We only one second-hand bit that had been wired to ground.

Yeah, I know, flame bait....

But then you have to worry about who guards the guardians?
That's not actually an rebuttal, or even an argument.
Good, I was merely making an observation.
