Power Cables


With more and more people getting into computers and the internet these days, the importance on the computer being reliable and fast, is growing.
As I recently learned from the computing section in the Argos catalogue, if you surf the internet more, you will need a faster processor. With a faster processor, one will need more power to let it process, which brings me onto my next point.



YOU NEED A NEW POWER CABLE, THE ONE YOU HAVE DOES NOT SUFFICE! SHAME ON YOU UNTIL YOU GET A NEW CABLE, SHAME SHAME! SHAME!



Anyhoo, sorry for that outburst.


As all computers work on electricity, obviously the most important part of a personal computer is the power cable, which brings the flow of electrons from those funny holes in the wall to the almost-as-funny-holes in the back of your computing device.
I would like to say that I have sponsors, and that I got a free power cable from them to review. But that would be a lie, so I'll have to just review some various ones that I have randomly lying about, or in use in my house.



So, onto the main review.


Ordinary power cables are round, they have always been round, and will never be anything but round, try and prove otherwise, and I will slap you. However, what excitement they may lack in flatness, is definitely gained in colour choice. I counted no less than four different shades of greyscale, in my home. Alone! Made up from: white, light grey, dark grey, and black. Also they come in various lengths, between 50cm and 200cm.


I'll now be upgrading my power cable from a light grey, Rawson cable, to a black with moulded plugs one. I expect to see anything from 200% increase in internet surfing performance after upgrading the power cable.
