Not all the computers had dual button mice. And only the cross platform programs supported right click.

Then when it came time to backup my stuff on a disc. Holy shit. Someone thought it was a good idea not to just have a keyboard hotkey to eject the disc tray. But to actually remove the eject button from the front of the case.

I had to get a guy who primarily used macs to show me how to get the damn tray out. "pretty cool huh?" was his response. Sure, it would be cool if my hand wasn't already going to be down their to put the fucking disc in the tray anyways.

gotta love macs

The fact that they tried to eliminate cut and paste from their functions kills me. Then they brought it back and called it something else as to not admit they were retarded.

cumbooks are best ye

coom

When I did that class was during the "macs don't crash" meme. They were right. They didn't crash, they would just bog down and function so slowly without recovering that they should have crashed.

they dont crash they just give you the color wheel

Yeah, that too.

Windows 95 style. Forever loading.

lul

in elementary we had macs

i liked playing kids pix xd

or kid pix idk

it was like paint

Oh god. We had like.. Apple IIIs or whatever. 5.5" floppy with color screen.

Until I switched to public school. Then they all had up to date gateway PCs

Never forget having to touch the metal chair to ground yourself before powering on the computer.

wat lul

Any static buildup on your body would result in a shock between you and the computer. Was nothing harmful to you, just unpleasant, and potentially destroy the machine.

wonderful

That's where all the anti static bs came from. 20+ years ago the components weren't nearly as resilient as they are today.

I always wanted to wave the floppies around.

yeah people buying static wristbands n stuff are being kinda silly

This retard I knew got £1000 from his mum for xmas and complained it wasn't enough

then he spent £50 on antistatic gloves

lol fug

no wonder it isn't if you buy retarded shit like that

what a dink

Most of the video guide people admit to never using the shit personally. It's still a possibility, and not a bad precaution to make. But I've rolled around on carpet to switch the cmos jumper while overclocking.

I shut the power supply off and depleted the caps, of course. But still.

ive seen reviewers grabbing shit by the pcb lmao

idk

It's perfectly safe if your hands are clean.

Hell a lot of modern low power motherboards have dehumidifier functions where they'll power on to produce just enough heat to stay dry in humid conditions.

I've only seen it on sub 25w platforms, though.

so like

there's some asus predator laptop at ces that costs a cool $9000

Isn't that the one with the dual gpus and mechanical keyboard? Or is that the acer?

yeah
