Hmm, she seems to think the reason you can't put the latest generation of CPU into a motherboard from 1989 (or 2009) is because they changed the number of pins in order to force you to buy a new motherboard. Not quite, dear. AMD doesn't make much money on mobos, and they'd love to sell you just a CPU if they could.

It's bursting at the seams with statistics intended to stir up emotions, rather than to inform. I'm not impressed.

I dislike consumerism, too, though.
