A computer that could do everything in the world simultaneously, and was indistiguishable from god.

That would be the best computer.

Now, are we talking about the best computer I could hope to make?

What ever happened to SCSI in RAID 0? Then you would be set.

Don't they have that computer that is made entirely from processed nuclear something or other? It'll set you back...about SEVERAL MILLION BUCKS!

Best damn thing available. Oh shit, you weren't supposed to hear about that.

QUIET MR.GATES! YOU'LL SCARE THE NEIGHBOURS!

No you freaks, I'm not having him over for a "nightcap". Your Mom does me fine.

Kick ass, my first real good burn here.

GO ME, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!
