Yeah, its not that complicated.

Mind you we've had threads here about how to wipe your arse that went on for 100's of replies.

That doesn't surprise me, Some of the people (not naming names) don't know their arses from their... :hmm: mouths.

Asus is more marketing than quality imo. I've had too much bad luck with them. Gigabyte has been rock solid for me though.

Both are good. Seems we really push Asus hard here, both motherboards and laptops. I've personally had nothing but success with them but I'm willing to admit a lot of it may be marketing.

Asus put out a damn video about this when they changed the pronunciation last year.

Link

Thats the official crap. /thread

Well, then they're wrong in changing the pronunciation.

It's like when Joe Theismann changed the pronunciation to rhyme with "Heisman"; his name is still 'Theesman' no matter what he says.

How the fuck do you pronounce Theismann as Theesman?



Oh fuck, I'm turning into Hal.

It was more the Theis into Thees.

But still this is not helping me make some distance from the other Brit. (no Offence HAL)

And THAT pronunciation is because of its German roots.

I thought we were talking about Jesus.

When I saw the thread title, it made me think of this:

Zeus: Why you keep calling me Jésus? I look Puerto Rican to you?
John McClane: Guy back there called you Jésus.
Zeus: He didn't say Jésus. He said, "Hey, Zeus!" My name is Zeus.
John McClane: Zeus?
Zeus: Yeah, Zeus! As in, father of Apollo? Mt. Olympus? Don't fuck with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass? Zeus! You got a problem with that?
John McClane: No, I don't have a problem with that.

[edit]
OK, so they recently changed it.
