When you take somebody else's thread, try to make it your own, and then change the subject that's called hijacking a thread. This was a perfect example of that term if I've ever seen one.
That was one sentence as part of a multi-paragraph rant about how much better laptops are and why there is no point in buying a desktop. His general point was that there is no reason to buy a desktop. Which is what I was arguing against.
If that's what you wanted to do then you should have made a new thread. The way you executed this whole thing was......weird.

Quote:He was basically saying the same thing that I was, only he left and I was still here talking. Naturally I have different ideas than he does, and we talked about them. I was the only one left making the laptop case, so naturally what I was saying had to be addressed by everyone since everyone else was on the desktop wagon. If it seemed like I was trying to convince you that a laptop is a good choice in a PC and the rest of the users were trying to convince me that a desktop is a good PC to use, it should have seemed like that, because that's what it was. Threads evolve, get off-topic and head in new directions, surely I don't have to explain that to you.
