My Rational Dream PC

  Hi:

When I was less educated I had described a “dream PC” of mine. I didn’t
realize that my requirements were illogical and canceling each other out
– e.g. wanting low-power, high-speed and no ROM. I wasn’t aware of the
fact that I can’t get low-power, high-speed, minimal ROM and not require
a cooling system.

A poster named “MooseFET” educated me about this.

Here is the stupid me in the link:

Now, I’ve changed.

My dream PC is a desktop PC [i.e. not a laptop] and does not have or
require any fans [or other cooling equipment], noisy parts [such as the
fan], or moving parts [excluding, of course, the electrons that make up
the computer’s electronic signals]. My dream PC is also a compromise
among the following:

1. Lowest power
2. Fastest speed
3. Lightest weight
4. Does not generate any perceptible heat [I can touch the insides of
this PC -- after it has been on for at least a day and still is on -- in
a room that is otherwise cold and still not feel any heat from the PC]
5. Does not generate any perceptible noise [I can place my ears very
close to this PC in a room that is otherwise completely-silent and still
not hear anything from the PC]
6. Most memory
7. Most storage space
8. Smallest physical size
9. Longest lifetime [unlike Flash RAM chips who lose their abilities to
function rather quickly due to electrons tearing their way through the
insulators]
10. Takes up the least amount of physical space in the room.
11. Greatest compatibility with most hardwares and softwares
12. Fastest internet speed
13. Anything else most would consider advantageous to a PC [e.g. virus
protection and security]

It is important to note that some of the above requirements may cancel
the extent to which the other requirements can be met. That is why I
said “compromise”.


Thanks,

No you haven't, not one bit.

You are so far out of whack, either drugs got you there, or drugs are
needed to get you back to reality.
