Went for the Elbox deal!!!!

I'm more excited about using the video card for super fast RAM.

I'm afraid it is rather super slow. Graphics card memory was never designed to be read, and thus it will struggle at that. It's likely to be only slightly faster than chip memory.

I didn't say we should be "just positive", just fair and polite.

And by that you're arguing that I was unfair and/or impolite?

Stating the uncomfortable facts is never popular and the messenger is an easy target.

As to why I ever bothered: I wouldn't care a single bit, except in this case where it was specifically said to be "super fast", which it clearly is not. If fact, quite the opposite.

Just remember that I didn't fire the first shot

I'm puzzled. Did someone say something impolite or unfair? If so, who?
If not, what do you mean by "fire a shot"?

by "fire the first shot", I'm pointing out that I wasn't the person who complained about the tone of your post.

smerf was joking you know. Even me, with my "abrasive personality" was able to tell that right way.

I thought it was pointing out the bleeding obvious.

Maybe my twisted personality sees humor where there is none.
