The only indication of how smart people on this site comes from their spelling and grammar.  Given that I know the difference between the word "site" and "sight" I'm going to say yes, I'm smarter.

Then you are not team-smart I guess because not everyone is a native speaker. Yes, the mis-spelling is obvious but everyone knows what he wanted to say. Perhaps ignoring mis-spelling words or indulgence is something some call wisdom which you only get when growing older.

Oh I'm a native. I just thought misspelling it would be ironic considering the question.

thats not really a good indication of how smart people are on here since a lot of people here speak english as a second (or even third) language

Honestly, after the "What degree do you have" thread I'm under the impression we have quite a lot of intelligent and educated people on this site. Maybe we should start a buisness :P

I don't remember that thread, where can I find it?, I know is not 100% real data, but is a good estimate.

Actually I am just gonna come out and say that most of the incredibly stupid things I see are from ignorance.  Too many people on this site think they know computer tech when really, they need to spend a lot of time educating themselves before they say something silly like "RAM doesn't affect performance."

But some are overdoing it with RAM: It doesn't affect fps, for example. But generally yes, most keep parotting what they read here or at GAF.


I went from 3 to 4GB of ram in my netbook and framerates increased by 50%.  RAM is important.


how did you increase RAM in a netbook? the only way i can think of is if you had 32bit windows and installed a 64bit windows?

I bought a good product.  The HP line of 11.6 netbooks with AMD APU's and 64-bit FULL windows 7 are unrivaled.  It opens as more easily than my desktop.  

 

This is my point.  You didn't even know good netbooks exist and can be upgrade, and yet you are going comment on their specs?!  IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISS!



Does anyone else think after reading all the posts in this thread they might be too dumb for this site? Doesn't only 2% of the world population have an IQ above 130?

That's true...and I was really suprised how many people on this site even trash that. I thought my IQ of 130 was good, and then came the guys with an IQ of 140 and higher...



I voted no.
