Title: Now it's official: If you use IE... you're dumb Post by: BCEmporium on August 05, 2011, 04:45:17 PM According to this study:
http://www.aptiquant.com/downloads/IQ-Browser-AptiQuant-2011.pdf people using IE are the ones with the lower IQ. Not that I believe much in these studies, but taken IE flaws... I second it. ;D Title: Re: Now it's official: If you use IE... you're dumb Post by: compro01 on August 05, 2011, 05:19:32 PM As much as IE annoys me, that study has already been declared a hoax.

IE users are the ones calling support because their "deeloos" are getting slow. ;D Back in my early tech support days I had a caller I'll never forget call me to ask how to "connectificate my thinkbook to da weefee" It took several minutes just to figure out if she was in fact using a thinkpad or a macbook, and another several to figure out that "weefee" meant WiFi... As it turns out it was a macbook, so perhaps we should extend the cliche to "people who use whatever came with the computer" instead of specific products. I 100% guarantee you that woman bought the computer because it was shinier than the one next to it. P.S. This isn't me spewing mac-hate, I've built my share of hackintoshes, this is me spewing stupid-noob-hate and that my friends is cross-platform ;) Title: Re: Now it's official: If you use IE... you're dumb Post by: BCEmporium on August 05, 2011, 06:46:52 PM I 100% guarantee you that woman bought the computer because it was shinier than the one next to it. As in general a Mac user would stroke faster if the Apple logo drops off his laptop than if his entire HD burns to hell ;D But yes, that's pretty much cross-platform and cross-technology.
