But still, you persist in posting here. What's the dealio? The thread isn't about gaming? Or maybe AMD vs Intel?So....you hate it because it's right? Batteries were in the friggin Jurassic era until recently. Horse-and-buggy is a pretty good description of what they are now, or maybe VERY early gas engine. Yes they work, yes you could technically use them, but they dont hold a candle to what we have now.
I dont normally agree with Psycros, but did you see that joke of an editorial they posted and defending this morning? Techspot is trying its best to eliminate any credibility it had of being a legit "tech" website. Even came with the "its unfortunate you dont like this slop" BS apology that big companies use.
I come from an era when portable radios used vacuum tubes, and carbon zinc batteries. The B+ supply was a >> 90 Volt <<.monster.
NiMH & Lithium Ion have put you in what West Virginians might describe as "hog heaven".
But go ahead, whimper and stamp your feet, I'm sure a research lab somewhere will hear you. It's just that progress can't come fast enough for the truly "needy", or "spoiled".
