Actually, they are much more suitable for gaming than other notebooks in their class.

For example, the MacBook Air is even smaller than my Alienware M11x r3, and yet the Broadwell 12" model will blow it away when it launches early next year. Sure, it can't play everything, but it'll play most of my Steam library. Typical gamer wants Call of Duty and even a MacBook will easily outclass the consoles (especially the MacBook Pro). Did you forget that they support Windows through BootCamp to play all the Windows-only games?

"Typical gamer" these days on a computer is playing WoW or LoL. I'm pretty sure both are available for Mac.

So what killed the plant?

Thousands of possibilities, but microwaved water isn't one of them... Unless she didn't cool it first. That's pretty bad for plants.

Meanwhile some girl in Sussex is reading my post, thinking "SON OF A BITCH!" :^D

Bad seed(s)? Not all sprouts and seeds and seedlings and offshoots are created equal. Not all will grow properly, or at the same pace.

In the least likelihood of scenarios, it could be the water, but it would officially take more than a 1:1 comparison test to demonstrate the effects.

Also the fact that she might simply have not taken care of the other plant very well because she already expected it to die. I somehow doubt this was a blind experiment.

I think it was established it wasn't blind. She labeled each one and knew which one got which water.
I wouldn't expect an issue taking care of it: she likely watered both at the same time.

Something tells me the original story is misrepresented or not fully revealed in the repost of it by the moron.

I'm thinking they microwaved the water AFTER they put in on the plant

Yeah, I was thinking boiling water might be a problem myself.

I have a hard time believing the plant on the right was started from seeds 9 days before the photo was taken. (I can't tell what species it is, but I start a couple varieties of herbs and stuff from seed every spring, and that looks more like week 3.)

You trying to tel me a macbook that isn't even released yet will be better at gaming than an underpowered overpriced alienware with a 500 series mobile GPU in it.

Apple really are on top of their game!

No. I am saying that any MacBook Air or Pro will blow away my current PC gaming notebook and yet my current one is perfectly fine for better than console-class gaming.
