I went to PC WORLD (sorry for swearing) just to check out the latest pc's before I went to Microdirect. I went there first just because it was nearer to me and to get an idea before going to Microdirect.
Now I was approached three times while looking. The third time I decided to play along. I was looking at a Geforce 4 MX 440 (SDR) card. I asked him how fast these were and would they cope with the new games out. This guy admitted he didn't know much about GFX cards (Respect) and asked this other guy ( A scouser). Now this other guy told me yes there a very good card and fast enough for the latest games. I asked him if it was ddr and his answer was yes. Well I pointed to the box then which said SDR. His response was well its a special type of sdr ram really its ddr. Now I swear this is the truth I couldn't believe it myself. I think I've told this story before on the old board after it happened but hey I enjoy meeting these people lol
