The personal computer was and is a revolutionary, life-changing piece of technology that can make numerous tasks easier, more convenient and less expensive than before. You might think, given their capabilities, that computers would simply leap off the shelves into the arms of happy, willing consumers, but that’s hasn’t been proven to be the case. The PC’s immense potential can also come with intimidating complexity, leaving many potential buyers confused about what exactly they’re being sold.

if we go outside the realm of PC, on the console there are some nice blunders in recent years:
- Nintendo Wii. Come on... "wanna play with my wee" ? what where they thinking.
- Xbox One. not as bad as a taking a Wee, but it's a bit short sighted, we already have an XBOX , calling the latest version, version "ONE", while it's iteration 3 is just silly. People now just end up calling it the XBONE . great job MS!
