"Windows uses Unix server at work, that's why Intel chips can work in Macs"

I'm fairly certain that the plists and binary blobs in ~/Library/Preferences are almost NOTHING like the centralized Windows Registry. This guy also claims there's a registry in Unix.

I could just let this go, but for a few details.

First, this guy is telling OTHERS that he is an expert on computers.

Second, he's telling them this in the context of helping them protect against Conficker-C.

Third, the basis of his expertise is that he works at Best Buy.

Sorry, but my head just exploded.

Later, his girlfriend was on, defending him, saying he really does know computers.

What is left of my head has ALSO exploded.
