Why do people want the impossible?
I don't know how it is in other sections but in Computers:
Gaming laptop for $400
Getting more available RAM without adding modules
and so on... (both of which by the way are impossible)

i wanna own ibm, conrad
fact is that, for all i know, i can barely buy 5 shares !
mission impossible, nothin like dreaming ...
my workplace has a few machines, with workstations
they stop, production stops !
these r 'digital' venturis machines
486dx2 processors by amd, clock speed = 66 hz
has 2 serial ports 4 rs232 communication
2 more serial ports, but rs485 from a isa slot card
another isa card 4 analog / digital conversion, 32 channel
os = win 3.11
ram = 4 + 4 mb, edo
hard drive = 870 mb
the bios, phoenix i think, refuses 2 read any hard drive upward of 2.1 gb ,, those days 8 mb on single slot was unheard of
now, they call it a dynosaur or whatever
> whenever a technician would come from compaq
they were good 4 nothin and i had 2 ultimately solve most issues
it's from there on i learnt a lil bit ...
(compaq i say cause they gulped digital, then got themselves gulped by hp ,,, i haven't had the pleasure of dealin with hp technicians tho .. cause no amc possible & none needed)
with vista commin, wont be long before we see 10 gig of ram in single slot ...
..... i dare 2 dream !
> i'm no computer, i'm human !

People are uninformed idiots. I mean seriously, a nice 512 MB video card costs 400, if you are lucky. Plus Windows Professional, at least 2 gigs of RAM, 300 GB harddrive, DVD/RW drive, and more. You are looking at around 1800-2400. How dumb can people be? All you have to do is google errrr... i mean yahoo! it to find out. Just search it. Thats all one has to do to stop asking the impossible.

People are taking a shot in the dark.

Look in apartment rental post sightings.
People ask for 2 bedroomns in Boston for like 400 a month instead of the minimum of 1200

They're so curious to whether they can get the impossible or they are too ambitious that they know they can find the impossible.

Human nature: ignorance and greed drive people towards unattainable goals. Hopefully Yahoo Answers will educate them.,

because the irony of it is
the impossible offers better stuff
and Little people have that "impossible technology" making it all the more fruitful

That's why people use YA!, to find out from people like you whether or not certain things can be done.
