If you actually read Freud, who coined the term, you would realise that only women suffer from penis envy, and then only if he is right (which is hotly disputed).

If you actually had some intellectual capacity, you would perhaps see I didn't mean it in a psychological sense. Women have penis envy, according to Freud, which causes them great grief.

The penis here is a fast, quiet, cheap computer, and the fact that another poster got one that dwarf's Apple's overpriced cheese grater has caused you great grief. Hence:

those blue LEDs on the front are actually designed like a car's headlights, with a reflective, curved back, but aimed towards the ground mostly. At night it illuminates floor all the way across my room with a gorgeous blue light.

And for you, this would be the most important feature to base your purchase decision on, right?

What's the best way of tiding up those wires, anyways? Mine are still bunched up like in your pic. (But I did take some consideration into where I bunched them up to allow air flow, of course)

It may be possible to remove much of the wires that you're not using (I've got a ton of extra ATA power cables). If that's not possible, it's best to use plastic tie things (or even twist-ties should work). Clump together nearby wires and duck them away in the sides of the case. I'm putting mine in by the empty drivebay to put it out of the way, in clumps tied with plastic ties.

There isn't any other sense. If you want to bastardize psychoanalytic terms, that's your problem - just don't expect educated people to understand what you say or to think you are clever.

To suggest I'm jealous of you is a bit of a joke - in fact, while we're in Freud mode, it seems to me that you suffer from narcissism.

For one I thank god I'm not gay. For another, I thank god I don't have to use Windows, and once more that I don't live in Calgary.

I don't expect educated people to understand, I expect intelligent people to understand. Some people are highly educated, while dumb as sh*t. They can even teach, say, Philosophy courses.

I do, it's true.

You're not fooling anyone, Agathon. Cut your losses.

You trolled a thread about a new PC and insulted my SO, it's patently obvious that you've got an axe to grind and somehow feel threatened or, more likely, jealous...

**Agathon** · October 1, 2003, 21:15

And as for this...

I did a long time ago in another thread, this is about the fourth time you've made a crack about the appearance of my SO. Which tells me that you have issues, and that you need to move on and stop insulting people's SOs.

**** you, you loser. You're quite content to do this to other posters (and rather more nastily and not long ago I might add), but whine like a stuck pig when it happens to you.

**Drake Tungsten** · October 1, 2003, 21:17

Hey, lay off Asher and his ugly boyfriend, Ag.

I don't insult people's SOs unless they do it to me. JohnT insulted mine, so I insulted his (with a wink, even).
You've directly insulted mine no less than four times.

You are the loser. Not to mention how you're trolling and looking like an ass inside a PC thread.

**Asher** · October 1, 2003, 21:19

Now the thread has been inundated with Mac users with an IQ of 10 who think it's fun and fine to repeatedly insult my SO because I bought a new computer.

**Drake Tungsten** · October 1, 2003, 21:20

I'm on your side.

**Ming** · October 1, 2003, 21:22

Everybody needs to just CHILL

And Agathon... you seem to be one of the main instigators here... so if you want to continue posting in the next few days, I would recommend you DON'T personally insult another member again.

Okey doke. I'm finished in this thread anyway.

**Asher** · October 1, 2003, 21:24

If I were religious, I'd pray for you.

/me has no idea why it took Agathon four times of insulting my SO before he even got in trouble, and even then it was only an indirect warning.
