Electronics

I hate it when I go to electronic shops, for instance like Best Buy or the Apple store, and the people who work there try to teach, inform, boast to me about the products sold. First of all, when there is a combination of 'electronics' and my desire to 'purchase' that electronic, you better be damn sure that Adam Johari has already done his research on the item.


When I mean research it means that I've memorized all the specs of that item and I could recite all the specs of that item back to the seller. For speakers, that means I know how much Watts the speaker uses, how big the tweeter size is, whether the product is THX certified or not, is it compatible with 240V, does the light in front of the speaker annoy people, is the bass deep enough, mid tones sound proper, max output creates a distorted sound and so forth.

For camera lenses it means I know how much chromatic aberration the lens has, whether it can auto focus on my camera or not, is it a fast lens?, stiff zoom ring?, fast auto focus, produces good color tones?, heavy/light lens, how many aperture blades, cheap feeling lens? etc.

I know all that crap. If I walk into those shops I don't look all confused and am asking for your 'expert' opinion, I just want you to smile and keep quiet. And just so you know, I have already surveyed every single other shop online that sells the same product and know what they are offering it for. I'm just at your shop for the view.
