If you look more closely, it's a subliminal message...

 

 

Do your duty Fatty

There is a difference between a hub and a switch. A hub is literally dumb and works at layer 1 of the OSI model (aka the physical layer). The switch operates at layer 2 and has logic chips that determine where packets go depending on the Media access control address of your nics. Hubs *increase your collision domain, while switches *decrease your collision domain.

 

Moral of the story...Stay away from hubs!

I literally have my old old p.o.s. 450PIII sitting with the case off it and a small fan plugged in and blowing on it.

That works well, i did that for a year until i got a better cooling system. Doest work well when you go to lan parties though.
