Tech Rules And The Technologically Illiterate Drool In 'Computer Show'

Back in 1983 computers were new and exciting technology that few people had in their homes and even fewer knew how to actually use, so not knowing how to use a computer in the 80s was forgivable.

Cut to the early 21st century, when a show called Computer Show appeared on the internet looking like it was made in the 80s, with a host who seems to be stuck in the 80s discussing modern computing.

Computer Show was created by the fine folks at Sandwich Video, so you know it's a quality product, and even though the show's host doesn't know much about computers he really wants to learn.

He's especially excited about a community site called Reddit, or more specifically the parts of Reddit full of color photos of people without pants.

Computer Show is a show for comedy enthusiasts, computer enthusiasts, or any combination of the two, but if you don't own a funnybone or a computer then it's probably not the show for you...and how are you reading this right now?!

Kurt Cobain ahead of Miles Davis on the genius scale?
Hello, perspective calling!
Cobain's work redefined a narrow portion of popular music.
Miles Davis redefined music itself - at least three or four times.

Pretty sweet! That took some thought!

Ah, I wondered where Kanye West was. I see that rappers are on another grid.

And regarding the grid of writers: Ain't nobody more arrogant than Ayn Rand. Sorry.

"Kurt Kobain's placement looks about right." Well, his *spelling* looks about right, but his placement on the genius scale - at least relative to most of the other names on this list - is preposterous. I love his music, but come on.

Neil Young will tell you that Jerry Garcia not only humbly took his place in American music, but that he did so with a vision and expertise that places him firmly in the genius level. And I will tell you that stopping to measure the genius of Axl Rose is like measuring the bounce of a flat tire.

Okay... WHERE are the female artists??? jeez!

I guess he must've left Frank Zappa off because neither the genius or arrogance scales go high enough.

As usual, such things say more about the charter than the chartees.

Prince is way too low on the Arrogance meter. Here we have a guy who took on the Big Label (Warner Music) and officially changed his name to a symbol just to get out of a contract. In Stipe's case (REM), he sold out by signing an 80 million contract with Warners…I don't think Prince and Stipe should be even near each other; they belong in different quadrants (or universe)!

Jimi Hendrix should have a dot -_-'

Jerry Garcia most of the way over toward mediocrity? I beg to differ...
