I have had an experience in pc world once where some other guy in there was buying 2, 5970s or 5870s and asked me for advice instead of the people working there. Obviously I just look like I know more![]()
As I've just finished school now, i have also had a few incidents there where half the people seem to think a computer is just laptops now, and dont seem to think desktops even exist... Someone even told me they could build a laptop because 'It cant be that hard'. I find it more frustrating when you cant argue back to them because they dont understand what you're saying.
Also talking about building my mate a pc I've had people believing that involves soldering all the components to the motherboard and building the processor yourself etc... If i cant be arsed to explain I occasionally just say yeh...kind of gets rep up a little haha.
ALL of my mates KNOW not to argue with me, when it comes to ANY tech![]()
if i am unsure about something, i keep quiet, and i read up on it at the first opportunity i get.
i am often remarked upon as, "How theheckdo you know that?". i have alot of useless stuff in my head - but it is excellent for quizzes, etc.
I know this feeling lol. I'm no guru on comps but i know enough to be able to sort out most problems.
Here's one for you...
Uncle: My PC picked up a virus or something the other day.
Me: Oh, not good, would you like me to take a look at it for you?
Uncle: No, no, that's ok I sorted it.
Me: Cool, well done. How did you sort it then?
Uncle: Well I uninstalled something called "Norton" and I don't get the messages any more.
Me: Ok, cool...erm, hang on WTF?.....

Lol PCWorld, the 'TechGuys' couldn't be anymore ironic.
