um, your comment about the virus coming down tells me all I need to know about you. :rolleyes:

If you feel insulted that you are one of those people, then perhaps you should improve the situation by educating yourself? Maybe a Computers for Dummies book?

If I went to MacDonald's and the lady behind the counter asked me about my experience in eating a hamburger, I'd slap her. "Excuse me sir, but I see that you are a novice hamburger eater. Please can I give you a short demonstration on proper hamburger etiquette and warn you about the dangers of cholesterol?"

Come on... get real! Which planet are you from?

Please if you are going to-do comparisons at least do them in the correct categories, comparing food vs computers is rather pathetic.

There are numerous people out there that read an advert regarding say internet, they phone a number advertised, the sales person who then explain the benefits as such and also the limitations. Just because you do not need the help nor guidance does not mean everyone has your insight on the subject matter. Again i say i am not referring to thriels case as he stated he needed a web server, so that would instantly tell me that he at least has intermediate knowledge of internet/computers. But i will use this as an example my friends mom knew nothing about computers, she then called this isp after seeing an advert on tv, which they proceeded to explain to her the details involved regarding the product, after she understood what should would be purchasing she went ahead and bought it.

Do you always find the need to resort to personal attacks on someones intelligence? And i don't feel insulted by your attempts. Perhaps you should use your elite computer skills and see who you are attacking first, and there level of technical savvy, which i am pretty sure far surpasses your own.


@hj

stop trying to jump on the band wagon, i am not protecting thriel he was an idiot thinking the account was paid for july when he paid for june or whatever the month was.


The point i am making is sales representatives should be more intuitive when it comes to there potential clients.

No bandwagon to jump. My own opinion, to which I am entitled ;)

Anyway, this post made much more sense.

Seems like you are running out of things to say, you are becoming rather repetitive.

Now they might not be personal attacks of substance per say, but the insinuation is there. Nor do i care if you are attacking its just an observation, you shouldn't get so hung up on it. *pat* You can go home to your wife later on and tell her how you where very hardcore to someone on the interwebz.

Maybe we are being over-optimistic here?

I think this link of approx R599 for 384KBP uncapped was published there for quite sometime already? As I remember the 3g SAIX R189 was there for months.

I would take the fact that MrBEEP himself posted the info in this thread to be a good sign. ;)

No, Mr. Beep only announced it toward the end of last month here on MyBB.

I can find the thread for you if you want.

It was in the context of Price Reductions and the effect of Seacom.
