Question

Cyrus · Accepted Answer

"Had a customer come into Office Depot looking for some printer ink, and he decided to tell me about his home computer.  "Yeah, it's probably the fastest computer in town. Upgraded the Pentium 3 to a Pentium... uh... 24... or was it 22? No it's a Pentium 24. And I upgraded it from 4 gigabytes of ram to 2,500 gigabytes."  I asked him if he meant Pentium 4 and he looked at me like I was crazy "No, it's a 24." I also asked him if he meant his hard drive had 2,500 megabytes and he says "No, I got 2,500 gigabytes of ram... You might not understand, its the sticks of ram, not hard drive." "

Karina · Answer

It's not funny but just a little odd when I hear it. My dad still calls a computer a machine. I mean a computer is a machine but I just imagine opening it up and seeing a hamster running on a wheel to move some gears.
