A month or so ago my family wanted to go camping in Oklahoma, so I went with them. However, I couldn't really stand to leave my baby at home that long, so I dragged it to the campground with me. In advance, yes that's a Cosmos 1000 under the bed, and yes the monitor is taped to the wall.

I'm proud to say that I'm an American, and I took my computer camping with me. All ten tons of it. On a side note, because of the high overclock of both the CPU and GPU, it made a WONDERFUL heater.
 
What an absolute waste of a camping trip. Different priorities for different people I suppose.

I would be miserable sitting in an RV playing video games on a "camping trip". You're not really camping unless you're sleeping on a gravel shoal or sand bar of a river at least five miles from the nearest "official" camping site. So since you were clearly in an RV you weren't really camping to being with, so I'm more inclined to forgive this travesty.


Good camping gear, a trailer, and canoes/kayaks are much cheaper and more fun than an RV. I fail to understand the RV "experience". What's the point? You go out into nature to sit in what is essentially a air conditioned one room apartment? They say you get all the nature with none of the hassle. I say you get none of the nature and none of the fun.

Lol you seem to have touched my anti-RV nerve :P

Oh that baby. I thought you meant like, human baby. o.o
 
i have to agree with Die. he hit the nail on the head. i'm an eagle scout so i love backpacking in backcountry with civilization miles and miles away. an rv is just a truck made into living quarters, like in a house. that's not camping. you must go out into nature with no technology on you and enjoy the earth as it really is, not as we have made it.

but since you did go in an RV for this one family trip, i won't rag on you. just don't call it camping ;) Sweet setup for an RV

RV's are alright, but I wouldn't call them camping.

To be completely honest, I'd be more impressed by a tent and a few thousand feet of extension cords :P
