I saw this in a political thread I was reading and it was just too funny not to post.  No I am not endorsing any candidate and I am not trying to start a political discussion here, I am just sharing the humor. 



Response:

I like analogies


1. I've never had a my computer's RAM fail in any computer system to date. Nor have any of my friends experienced this issue, and only a few documented cases have existed since the inception of RAM in computer systems so I can safely assume that failing RAM is such a rare occurrence as to make an almost irrelevant issue. I just assume worry about about being attacked by an elephant, or a plane falling on my house.

2. However, RAM does go obsolete within 2 years (sometimes sooner), this is a guaranteed fact and a very real issue that effects anyone who owns a computer.

3. So if my choice is between not having the correct amount of RAM now, with the possibility of better RAM later, which would be obsolete by the time I got it anyway.

Or having the right RAM now, but there is the possibly of getting way too small RAM later (knowing the chances of failing RAM is nearly ZERO)....The choice is to get the best possible RAM now, becuase the odds of needing the secondary RAM is nonexistent. I believe better performance now is key, becuase I'll have the opportunity to get another computer in a few short years anyway.

4. It should be noted that while some RAM is claims to be 256Mb..in reality it is closer to 128Mb, becuase it has never really proved itself in any sort of "computing" function so it doesn't have benchmark tests like all the other RAM.

5. I'd also rather my smaller RAM grow into larger RAM in a computer system that isn't so important to the world...you know maybe the computer system controlling the free world isn't the best place to be bench marked.

6. Another issue is that the very small RAM is only compatible with certain CPUs that have a tendency run hundreds upon hundreds of programs which want to redistribute all of the system resources; even to the detriment of the entire system becuase the CPU believes it's knows what best for the system resources regardless of what the system resources want, or can handle. Maybe it's not the best thing to throw the tiny RAM into a such a large computer that will requires much more RAM than the little guy can handle.

7. The RAM has also had some issues in the past having some issues that can exploited by known viruses...as well as having aided malware for over 20 years under the guise of a religious program. Granted the system claims to have been cleaned recently, but this sort of vulnerability should not go unnoticed, entirely.
