Yeeeah...its a joke:

Computer hackers are often limited by conventional computer hardware. They may request "faster" video cards, and larger hard drives, or even more memory

If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking

Is your son obsessed with "Lunix"?

Yeah I read some more stuff. The site has got to be a joke. I bet some people believe it though.

imbest123, I see we think alike in notebooks. Just curious, how long does your battery last? Mine last about 3 hours.

Poll

I'm scared of hackers because...

They hack into NASA 5%
They steal things 4%
They are violent sociopaths 4%
They use amphetamines and speed 7%
They help Osama Bin Laden 14%
They're un-American 5%
They smell bad 58%
Hmmm...
