NightmareLvl: People who messed it up, viruzed there pc, and no professional recovery tool can get there files back, and blame it on you. "It haz to be there, it cant be lost, i worked one month on it. You did it."
It is not funny, it sucks, but it belongs into this thread.

You definately have to watch out how far you want to get into that, with you being a computer wizard its taken for granted that you fix everything for free in no time.
If for some reason thats not possible its your fault.
("But I thought it would be smart to put refrigerator magnets on my pc case..." :| )

Another thing noobs have are expactations:
They want a super awesome pc for 500Ôé¼ or tft for 100Ôé¼, they live in a different world than you.
If you find them a system with good specs for this kind of money of course its the cheapest stuff money can buy.
If this stuff shouldnt work anymore sometime in the future guess what its somehow your fault.

Next time I will tell people to buy a PS3 or something when they want a gamer pc, it costs less and the hidden costs for every game well they are hidden for noobs or they dont mind being milked. (Somehow its trendy being milked, "look at my new iphone yay").
They can type their garbage on their garbage pc, no problem at all.

And also youre not their official warez dealer when they have a ps3.

rant over :|

Few years ago: some guy in some school got arrested by police(?) because he was using black themed Linux, they said he looked too much like a hacker and thus thought hes a criminal.

I found that really funny. Noobs watched too much TV, where all the badass hackers have black themed OS.
