Now, how about this fat-mouth, go lecture your kids. If you don't have any, find someone who's dumb enough to think that you have something worthwhile to say.
Wow...that was pretty uncalled for. There's no need to get sassy because you're upset about a god damn
case standard. Cool down. I didn't mean to sound lecturish, sorry if I did.[/b].
You fly in here with your high-density BS and have the nerve to say MY response was uncalled for? Just to make it worse you mix lame diminutives like "You're being SASSY!" with a half-assed apology.
Here's a word of advice for you, trick-baby: Don't assume that everyone, EVERYWHERE, is just itching to hear your every thought. And that goes DOUBLE when you're new to a forum and start off LECTURING people who's knowledge level is a mystery to you. Oh, and why should I be upset by something I don't care about? If anyone's riding the emotion train, it's you.
"My whole point is that the new standard is worth something. Is it revolutionary? No, but it is an improvement."
You point is stupid. My case temp and airflow are just fine. You really need to spend less time being a "new standard" evangelist and do some reading on the subject. I have no wish to be a test dummy for something that I find superfluous. If you're so bleeding hot for this YOU buy into it and let the rest of us make up our own minds as the situation develops. IF it develops.
"I've seen a lot of people constantly pointing out, in this thread and other on other fora, and they're usually ignored or people just try to shoot them down."
Huh? :laugh:
"Okay, so maybe Intel is pushing it because the Prescott needs it. Now, what exactly is so bad about this?"
Nothing. But I don't have to lap it up like a thirsty dog either.
"People need to think of it from a business standpoint, not just an AMD fanboy standpoint (again, no one inparticular)."
There you go again, proving how much of a pedantic ass you are. I'll consider the situation from any angle I wish.
"People at Intel see a problem with ATX, and wow, it can also help Prescott."
So everyone, at YOUR (Intel's) behest, should immediatley RUSH out and buy BTX, not to mention a Prescott? Silly rabbit.
"What are they supposed to do, not go for it? Comon."
You come on. Intel is trying to make up for flawed design decisions by forcing people like you to buy new cases, and flex their quickly weakening muscles in the process. If you were breathing regular air you'd see this.
"I really don't buy all this garbage about Athlon 64s not being able to conform."
Who cares what you think?
"Now perhaps if I hear it coming from engineers from AMD, but for some strange reason I have trouble believing what a bunch of modders and tweakers have to say, vs the slightest faith that engineers might be able to solve a problem."
Yeah, I'm sure AMD is interested in explaining their goals and strategy to you. Google is your friend, lickspittle.
