They talk about how only the most technologically advanced folks have had access to PC customization until now, but I think that's a load of crap. Frankly it doesn't take much intelligence to know how to assemble a computer from discrete parts.
So I think this has really no benefit for customers, other than making their wallets a decent bit lighter and making customization a minuscule bit more intuitive.
To quote it right from the website:
Quote: "For more than 30 years, only the most hardcore enthusiasts were able to take advantage of PC customizability. Convoluted hardware made it insane for the average person: knowing what does what, what works with what, and how to connect the pieces."
Yeah, again, that's a load of crap.
Some of those words there are
really exaggerated. If you have trouble putting RAM in a DIMM slot, get psychological help. If you have trouble putting a graphics card in a PCI-e slot, get psychological help. If you have trouble dropping a CPU into a ZIF slot and locking it in, get psychological help. If you have trouble plugging power supply plugs into clearly corresponding sockets, get psychological help. Etc. Now I am exaggerating too, but I think my point is clear.
