I really don't appreciate the insinuation here. Maybe I wasn't clear with my comment about "trolls" - I didn't mean I thought you, specifically, were a troll or anything like that, even though you posted in this thread. In fact my point was sorta the opposite - I'm sorry, I probably just wasn't doing a good job explaining myself. Basically what I meant is that - while I, personally, do not believe this - it's understandable that people think lots of people here on Bitcointalk.org are trolling, because a lot of the time people here say things that are sorta wrong, because they grew up in very exclusive communities and forgot that the outside world wasn't as "quick" with technological advances as they and their close relations were.

Your an idiot. You didn't need to be in an exclusive community to have a computer in 2000. Hell AOL had 20 million subscribers in 2000 and they sure as hell weren't running them on typewriters. That is when AOL was covering the planet with their 88930482390483904 hours free CD. Magazines, newspapers, direct mail, etc.

And why do you think so many AOL CDs ended up in garbage cans? Does it even occur to you that there might be a reason people were joking about AOL CDs being worthless?

A computer in 2000 wasn't an ultra exclusive niche. As others have pointed out your timeframe is wrong. If you said 1980 or 1990 a personal computer was pretty rare but 2000? Come on.

You sound like some idiot trust fund baby on his first day in the dorms. "Oh my god, what do you mean there's no jacuzzi? Everybody in my gated community has a jacuzzi these days! Roll Eyes

".

Who is trolling now?

I don't know, my money's on the vitriolic hothead who opens his post with "your [sic] an idiot".
