when it comes to tech matters that is. Share your experiences as well.
So back in college during a chit chat, a friend said that his dad bought him a new computer. So, me being a tech savvy guy inquired about it.
the anecdote goes like this
Me: "What processor is it man??"
Friend1: "Err, "
Then I hear a friend laughing in loud.
Me: "What man?"
Friend2: "You asked him about his computers BROWSER and he didn't know what it was!!!!!!!!!'
I just nodded along.

On another occasion, one friend was boasting about his new 12MP camera.
Me: "Megapixels aren't everything. The size of the light sensor matters way way more than that."
Friend: "How do you know the size?"
Me: "It will be in the specs."
Friend: "I can't remove the lens of the camera. It might get damaged..."
Me: "Specs mean Specifications."
Friend: "oh.."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was looking to upgrade my pc, back in 2008. And My bro suggested his friend's brother who's a dealer.
I phoned him.
Me: "I need a P5Q Deluxe mobo and a E8400, couple of 2 x 2gb ddr2...(and some other stuff that you can imagine..)"
Him: "P5Q deluxe?"
Me: "Yep."
Him: "Man.. It doesn't support the e8400 processor THAT MUCH. You'd be better off with an Intel original motherboard."
Me: "Okay..," *Hangs up with a sigh*
