is it still cool to put what computer you have in your sig?

[AMCRambler]

Very. Also put how much wiener you got. Because we all know that's what it's really about.

Not necessarily cool but definitely useful on a tech site. This being a computer hardware site, I list my computer parts; on a telescope hardware site like Cloudy Nights, I list my astronomy gear. People like to see what others have (shows what can work together) and it makes it easier to contact someone for feedback about a particular CPU/video card/optical tube assembly/eyepiece/etc... Plus when you post about upgrading, people can readily see what you currently have.

 

[rudeguy]

It's not useful, it's bragging. And the really bad part is no one gives a shit, so you are only bragging to yourself.

 

[mnewsham]

It's not useful

Bullshit, just because you have never found it useful doesn't mean it isn't useful.

 

[rudeguy]

Bullshit, just because you have never found it useful doesn't mean it isn't useful.

How would it be in any way useful?

Your giant red bird is more useful.

What's your power bill like?

 

[n7]

Of course...though i'm too ashamed my ancient hardware to list it anymore.

 

[nickbits]

Disabled signatures ftw!

Oh, those were the days!!

 

[olds]

Just build a computer that runs and you won't have to keep referencing your sig for tech help...

 

[IronWing]

The cool people turn sigs off and so won't see your specs anyway.

 

[SP33Demon]

Definitely still cool.

 

[88keys]

It's a computer oriented forum and you can't post images so I don't see it good for much else other than maybe a cynical or snaky comment.

I just have them all listed in a singe docs file that I'm too lazy to keep updated half the time.

 

[PsiStar]

You have just 1?

 

[WaTaGuMp]

Only if you have a badass one built by Alienware.

You didnt spring for 16GB? Now you're stuck with 8GB for the life of that MBP.

 

[Paladin3]

I wonder if Ron Jeremy has a computer, and if he does and just happens to post here, would that be the rig he'd give the specs on in his sig? Hmmmm...

 

[RossMAN]

Mod quotes are 10x better.

 

[zCypher]

It's only cool if you have a good computer.

486dx2 @66Mhz turbo, 8MB ram, 512MB HDD, sound blaster 16 + 2x cdrom, Trident 1MB video card @ 640*480, 56k high speed modem.

Best.

 

[james1701]

Yes

 

[Paratus]

Those who don't have it on their signature obviously have little wimpy girly man computers. Probably with Hello Kitty on the side.

 

[brainhulk]

So when you guys post in health and fitness, do you guys post a full body selfie in your sig?
