Not this topic. The people of Latin decent in Wal-Mart one. I tried being reasonable on that one and kept it off-list. But that was the same tune off-list.
Presentation and defense of subjective observations as viable facts. I should probably forward my initial off-list reply to the list lest folks think me incapable of diplomacy.

You do this passive-aggressive arguing shit too often. You start off saying you weren't clear on your original point then you proceed to defend a point you patently have no understanding of, then as what should become clearly your error, you either cease to reply to the email thread, or you pull this let's agree to disagree bullshit. If I could be coerced to give a damn I'd feel sorry for your pathetic, closed-minded, delusional ass. But I can't. You're just pitiful. - WJR On Wed, Sep 22, 2010 at 10:19, John Aldrich <[email protected]> wrote: *shrug* This discussion has gone on for awhile and neither side is going to be able to sway the other. I see no need to drag it out and keep it going when we're just going to disagree. I've stated my position, I've tried various examples to explain why I think it's a bad idea, and vice versa, but neither side has budged their position. Why drag it out and risk getting hateful over it? You're entitled to your opinion, I'm entitled to mine. We're both entitled to try and convince the other that they are wrong, but in the end, if we can't convince each other, the best thing to do is agree to disagree.

As long as Walmart doesn't say that the CPU is Quad-Core, but neglect to tell you that you have to pay extra. If Walmart says that the CPU is dual core, 2GHz and supports VT, and it costs $x, then why should anyone care that the CPU can do extra for additional payment.
