Well upgrading to new cards such as 7950 gx2 may seem alot or even upgrading a computer after 3+ years. I see some threads about people waiting 1-5+ years to upgrade their computer. Well im only 16 and i make 12,000$ a year... Reason why i make 12,000$ is cause im not lazy. I work in a restaurant and make 12,000$ a year working 3 days a week with school after school. So if u think about i dont work that hard and i can still upgrade to a top notch or even buy whatever i want. I could even support my own apartment i just think most of you are lazy. get off your parents money and get a job.

Why are you all so cheap?

Let's see you support a mortage/rent, a car payment, food bill, electric bill, gas money, heating/cooling costs, and a family off of your $12K a year.
Better yet, lets put you in my situation:
Spend $31K on college a year. Make $30K at your job. Afford a house, a car, a girlfriend, gas money, and food money from that.
Just because you're still in high school, and living off your parents dime, doesn't mean everyone is. Heck, making $12K a year is considered a poverty level for a reason. Care to guess why?

I don't know if this would be the correct place to post this. For myself I have a wife and four children I have more important things to do with my money than buy hardware. I would love to have the best hardware, but it is not possible right now. I don't think most people would agree with you calling them lazy, for most it is a matter of priority. Hope I did not offend you , but your post might offend others.

Please don't make pointless threads.
why should everyone even bother buying the best of everything when it comes out, some people here have families and may need to keep somewhat of a bank account to support it, or are going to college and need to spend "computer money" on books, and classes.
why dont you try to support yourself in your own appartment on 12,000 a year, and see if you cant think of a better place to be spending your money... instead of newegg and zipzoomfly.com.
i hope you're slapped with the BAN stick, you really ARE clueless?
