i

t might be called “personal” computing, but it’s actually best

you not get too attached to your PC hardware. Because no

sooner have you snuggled up to that 8800 GTX or taken to

calling your Core 2 Duo “soul mate” than new and better parts

come along that make you question the foundation of those

relationships. Before you know it, the money you should be sav-

ing for the next best gear is going toward therapy.

To make it as a power user, you must say no to sentiment—

stuff all those warm, fuzzy feelings you have for today’s parts

and instead embrace the inevitability of technological progress.
