Here's the thing. A slow processor (or "dog") would prevent you from watching a 1080P movie because it would be pegged at 100% for the whole movie, resulting in a choppy video. A slow processor could prevent you from successfully burning a CD while watching Youtube, becuase it'd be peg the processor. In both situations, you'd see a pegged processor and the computer would be slow as a result. Now try those same tasks with a fast processor and the CPU won't be pegged as often and as a result, the computer will function better. I mean that's the case, right?

And yes, if you tell somebody it's funny that they think something, it is condecending, regardless of tone.
