Jason: Please, Mom, please... get this computer! It's got dual processors, tons of ram, a state-of-the-art 3-D card, a built in disk array, DVD, slots galore, ports galore, and Dolby Digital Surround Sound output! Andy: If you ask me, it's awfully plain. Jason: Plain? Andy: Have you seen these cute ones in all different colors over here? Jason: "Cute"? Mom, this is Cindy Crawford!

My sister is a computer IT person. She’d know more about computers than 99% of the guys I meet.
