Dell Says This is Why You Need a Quad Core CPU

[Dumbfinger]

Dell advertisement points out what the power of a quad core processor can do for you.

Today's computers at almost all price points pack multi-core processing power. With all that added processing capabilities, your computing experience should be richer than ever.

Dell, one of the biggest seller of new computers, advertises that these new multi-core computers can help you get more done at the same time… such as checking email, editing a digital photo and running antivirus in the background – all that the same time. Incredible.




true story...thought this was funny

Finally! I've always wanted to be able to do those things at the same time. Since it's a quad-core though, does DELL also only suggest running four applications at the same time?

Good stuff...

I think I'm the only one that doesn't find this funny

Did you know? You can run virus protection, check email, and edit a photo on a single core. They are trying to push better chips to the idiot consumer.

Funny as all get out.

You don't find it funny when companies make fun of their customers? I know I sure do. I wish at Starbucks, where I work, I could insult people without losing my job. "Are you sure you want a Venti ma'am? Your roll is hanging out!".

Maybe some day we will be ble to play simulations of war on one of these "computers". I mean most of us here just run our antiviruses and edit photos. Some day...
