mayorteeny: Well you did say he was a product of a "faulty educational system". Dude just told you he graduated from CIT. Next time don't assume everyone on NL went to mushroom schools, yes Nigerian schools inclusive. I know products of "faulty educational systems" that are whooping academic and extracurricular asses in some of the world's best schools. Wetin you get for ur SAT or GRE sef? Abeg which skool u go and wetin be ur GPA? Olodo.

TJ Mz, chill now. Mrs Chima & 'Omo to dun' started the name calling. No one enjoys his/her ego being trampled on nor derided.
For one, the theme of the post was not what brought about the conversation but people started carving him that he attracted his likes. Therefore, we shouldn't talk to the so-called dredges of the society. I personally fault their response but then, for my pocket!

Secondly, I guess what surprised Pdude was the fact that this lady is a scholar - a representative of an average American (the purported advanced man), as against the Primitives ( the inhabitants of hinterlands e.g the West Indies & the remote Central America). She ought to know. Despite our landmass size (which even is still not too small to be considered negligible), I guessed there's been a lot of ample events which had put the country on 'hotspot' enough to spur an average scholar to know about the country. I don't consider myself hot or brainy but I know small about the world, which a self-acclaimed advanced human being should.
Meanwhile, her reported spoken English was even poor which most of us didn't spot from the written conversation. But I, for a person, don't care. In as much as I understand your message, no issues.
How you dey? You just left your homecow like that! God dey ooo!

@ OP, dem plenty die! And they abound everywhere. I remember a beauty pageant where a drop-dead gorgeous chick like that was asked who the Nigerian 1st president was, & guessed what she said? - Mr Sani Abacha! My informally learned grannie almost broke her neck from laughter.
Goodmorning peeps!!

I have sent you mails. Please, kindly promptly reply me.

Now I know you have tried.
Pls, does the 14z have a mini eSATA SSD ( e.g 16 or 32 Gig ) paired with the 1TB spin-head HDD.
The Dell site disclosed that the storage device for the 14z is a mini eSATA paired with a HDD.

Do you still have the 14z in stock please? I would have called you on the phone but it pays me here.

Thanks for the info.
I'm more interested in the Timeline Series.
Pls, kindly be more detailed in posting the specifications of the PCs

Price please

I'm curiously interested in the Acer Timeline.
Please, could you kindly post the detailed specification e.g
* the full or specific model
* the graphic's card make & size
* screen / display resolution ( 1920 by 1080 or otherwise),
* no of cell in battery & how long it can last,
* backlight keyboard
* etc

I called you not quite long ago ( Sun morning talking about the 14z or the XPS 15).
Can I pay 150 for the XPS 15 ? ( You know say its processor is 2nd generation & it's WIN 7 ).
Please, you didn't tell me about the graphics card! What is the screen/display resolution? Do you know the speed of the processor? It counts for me if I know.

The FEDEX office nearest to me is at Port-Harcourt.
Same applies to DHL.
Pls, don't be annoyed that I seem to trouble you a lot.
I guess as much that work & study are demanding on your time, & my post even reflected that.
How much will it cost all in all down here? Quote all in Naira.

Could you kindly check this earphones for me:
* Altec Lansing Backbeat Titanium
* Velodyne vPulse
* Beats Monster Turbine (Please not the Pro Gold nor the Copper)
I prefer one of the 1st two.
Thanks & Happy Sunday

Zeal!!!, I've been eagerly awaiting your response. Seems to me that you are not interested.
Could it be that your work is tedious?

MOBBDEEP: * Levono Thinkpad T430
* HP Folio 13
* Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A
* Dell XPS 15z L502X
* HP DM4 3099se

Help me check the 1st 3 PCs.
I'm picking one of them.
How soon can I get them.
Let me know their prices

* Levono Thinkpad T430

jude33084: Ɣ☺Ʊ are saying Ŧħåϯ because Saudi Arabia gives death penalty Ť☺ drug pedlers nigeria trafic officer should beat up trafic offenders? I am nt even thinking about till death Nna na wah o!

Oh no!, you don't get it. He's trying to say that Nigerian Government do not value the life of her citizen, in sharp contrast to the aforementioned countries where human lives are held so sacred such that trivial crimes, as perceived by the OP ( I differ on this though), attracts death penalty.
Hence, it is technically safer to live in those countries.

Ile-Ife:
Has the beheading and cutting of penis or arm stopped people from committing these crimes? NO! amputations and decapitations take place every year which means the draconian/sharia law does not serve as deterrent. which means it's not better than the Nigerian constitution in discouraging crime with all it's blood and brutality.

I hold a slightly opposite view. While you are absolutely right about abounding & flourishing crimes in the face of Draconian laws, it still does not put off totally the beneficial aspect of it.
We must quite appreciate that there are 2 kinds of criminals :
* Those who are born-criminals
* Those who are pushed by circumstances beyond their crime-threshold, especially psychosocial & emotional issues, to commit crimes.

It is this latter group that Hammurabi-styled rule of laws work for as it raises their threshold higher (because of fear). Therefore, quite an ample number will be dissuaded & discouraged from commiting the crime after thinking it through, though the idea was visited.

It is very difficult to assess the effectiveness of your measures on this group in real values.
Think of it this way, how can you count the number of children prevented from being conceived by using contraception.

As long as there are humans living together, crimes are bound to abound, though its festering can be hedged.

I'm the one following you on the DM4 thread.
Does this Dell have a backlit keyboard?
I guess it's new.
Does it have Graphics card?

Please, I forgot.
Does the DM4 come with Dr Dre Monster Cable Ear-bud/Ear-piece?
Does it have a dedicated/discrete Graphics Card?
Is like it's 2 types you have.
What are the 2 models, specs & price differences?
How much will they cost me with the courier service?
Any discount?
Thanks

Sir, I want to ask before I make my choice btw the Dell Inspiron & this.

stpat1: hahhahahahaha woooosh. ***falls from the bed****
Omo I too like the guy o, you want to deny him what he enjoys in the name of being civilised abi. Though buy a second hand Audi 80 for that price is sheer stupidity sha, but I don't see anything wrong in wanting to eat Yam instead of pringles, afterall you guys were with friends which should probably know him already.

There are things I am also not used to that my chick want to instill in me by all means. like

Wanting to get used to washing the dishes with liquid soap instead of the bar soap I'm used to. i'm used to my Canoe or key soap

Always adding dettol to my bathing water (who teach me this one)

Always asking me to wash my hands every now and then

Prefers I used the Vaccum cleaner instead of broom. (she no know say na effizy I buy am for)

Always complaining I walk too fast ( I was born and raised on the streets of Lagos, no time for sme sme)

there so much other stuffs she's always trying to imbibe in me that I just comply with to satisfy her, but left for me I was born a papi roro, na God just pity me. lol

Brother, I feel you.
No time for 'sme-sme'
But why buy Vacuum-Cleaner for 'effizy'?

@ OP
Mental problems are under-reported in developing nations & the populace are not well-informed about it. Mental illness, to them, is when someone is stark mad. Not appreciating the fact that there is a thin line between normal & abnormal.
I hope you won't wait till he starts blowing CD ( 'fere' daddy ) as a balloon or when he starts telling you that he can understand animal's talk.

By the way, overcooked/slightly-softened boiled white-yam soaked inside the top-part of a standing red-oil, sprinkled/garnished with salt sparingly & eaten/served hot na die.
